Opera v12 almost uses 100% cpu by playing a simple flash movie

Why does it take so much cpu to play a simple flash movie in opera 12?
opera takes aroud 35% and the new plugin wrapper around 60% cpu?!

Very bad compared to Opera 11.64!
Who knows a solution?

Thanks in advance!

(opera 12 on winxp sp3)

i got similar problems, sometimes the called "plugin wrapper" takes 100% cpu even after close the flash video, and i must kill the process
but the main problem i am having is a trouble sound in the flash videos, around one time each 20 seconds i get that effect
its so annoying listen a video or videoclip that way. With opera 11.x i was able to play anything correctly even having CPU at 100%
i restored windows to another point, i updated flash to last version, and this damn sh** still happens.

this pisses me off
lookS like if each new version got more problems than it solve
i bet opera programmers just do their work, they are tired and they just don't care about the result,
"bugs? oh well, no one is perfect... any way opera is free!"
sadly best well done things are the ones made by initiative, because its done with love and not for money,
opera is going worst and worst since a lot of versions.

No discussion: The performance of opera 12 is sluggish. It does not like flash like it seems. I am going to deinstall the 12.00 version. Afterwards I will install 11.xx again. Opera 12 ist a beta test carried out at the customer. Luckily I have installed Iceweasel as well. Iceweasel keeps the promises Opera made. I am extremely disappointed.
