    • UPDATE I had a PS2 camera plugged in via a macam quicktime driver. That may have been the cause. Simply unplugging it seems to have helped. I think Flash sites were fighting for the camera and causing unnecessary delays.? I had the same errors coming from Safari. Whatever, I can browse again..
