I was watching that video just before the upgrade to 10.1 and it was completely smooth. And then right after that I went to watch it again and it was dropping lots of frames. The other videos I watch regularly are the CNN videos. Although they are still smooth, now the CPU utilization is much higher, more than 80%. Are you using Fedora? What version of the Flash plugin? What is your CPU utilization playing that video? What is the CPU?
