Plugin-Container memory use going through the roof

So only general web pages are open, and Plugin-Container memory use is 70mb. Is this related to the recent Adobe Flash changes ? Their new plugin ( Version 11_*_*_* or whatever it is ) was causing problems. I do not have Flash installed on this laptop anymore and have a Flash Version 10 plugin for Firefox copied into the Firefox Plugin folder. Flash videos work fine but i'm concerned with P-C using up this amount of memory when i'm only viewing general web pages without loads of Flash content.

My Plugins page tells me that the Shockwave Flash needs to be updated, but I'm not installing version 11 until the problems have been solved.

What problems have you been having with the 11 version flash? Adobe just recently released 11.3, I'd suggest you update to that and give it a try.

As for if plugin container is using too much RAM, it depends on what you think are "general websites". Is this flash ad heavy pages, youtube, etc. Or simple all text pages?

You can try to reset Firefox and see if that helps at all. Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings.

Also make sure you have all Windows updates, updated your graphics driver, etc.

Yeah, it was the most recent update, problems have been posted on here.

Done the usual windows update checks etc

I think a core problem might be a poor graphics card, and as they can't be replaced ( as i understand it ) i may need to upgrade the laptop

70 MB isn't such for the plugin-container process.

Does it really stay that low or does it go up to several hundred MB?

Why are there two instances of the new Adobe plugin running when using Flash ?

it's part of adobe's protected mode - for more information about that please refer to http://blogs.adobe.com/asset/2012/06/inside-flash-player-protected-mode-for-firefox.html
