Yes, flash on Linux has issues, but those issues don't seem to affect 
Chrome as much.  I don't have Chrome suddenly go away while I'm perusing 
some website as often happens with Firefox.  But even when I'm not 
visiting sites that use flash FF still consumes a lot of memory. At 
least once a day I have to stop and restart FF because it stops 
rendering pages correctly or refuses to render a page.
