When I view this site it immediately pegs firefox at full cpu and I don't even have to touch the slider. As soon as I leave the page again it drops back down to 4%. The problem has something to do with the flash plugin.
Well, I can see your point that it does not seem that much CPU should be consumed when the slider is not being dragged.
Nevertheless, the flash program works fine, from a user perspective, when I run it natively in X.
So I say the problem is related to using both the flash plugin and x2go at the same time.
I don't think so. I was doing this natively. x2go was nowhere in the picture.
As I was saying, when you view natively the kernel gives high priority to display, so although the browser is pegging the cpu you can still have a good user experience. When you access remotely using x2go all the processes involved in getting the remote display back to the client do not enjoy the same level of kernel priority I'm afraid and so they run slower and you notice this at the client.
