I use qt 4.6.1 on windows and the speed of flash in qwebview compared to other browsers such as firefox, chrome, or IE is very slow. The CPU jumpes to 50-70% on my system and a similar case was here. (http://www.qtcentre.org/threads/19632-qt-4-5-webkit-when-flash-plugin-enabled-overloads-cpu-by-40-70-on-windows?highlight=overlaod+cpu+flash) And another case here. (https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24913) It's not just my application, but the demo browser also has very slow flash. I do not see why the other browsers can play flash much faster with less CPU if qtwebkit uses the same plugin as they do.
