Enough said. I've zillion of Safari windows running on multiple Spaces, and when on the road/rail with MacBook, I always disable the Flash plugin altogether. Despite my use of click2flash, HTML5-enabled video on YouTube & Vimeo, I still see "idling" Flash-plugin process continuously taking few percents of CPU, no matter what.
