Same problem here. I thought maybe it was my RAM at first (the system is P4,512 MB). It started out as minor inconvenience, slowing the system down when multiple tabs are open and whatnot, but until today, it didn't affect the flash content. Made up for it today though, as I spend practically all day trying to figure out what was wrong. The only change I've made before this thing got worse was change a media player plugin (for Berkeley webcast btw) from Parole to VLC. Today, every time I tried opening a youtube video, the whole system just froze. I made matters worse by doing manual restart, which led to some fancy keyboard light falshings(caps lock and scroll lock), which the guys at IRC told me was kernel panic. Now, I'm certainly not a Linux expert yet, but I figured this was bad. After a few other restarts, I got the system to work again, but I've installed "xul-ext-flashblock" to block the flash content for the time being.
