plugin freezes my system periodically, randomly.

[A]

Firefox freezes randomly while at tankionline.com using flash plugin which sometimes crashes. I often end up going to a VT and killing the plugin, no report is usually generated but CPU utilization goes back down as does the load.

CPU usage goes up past 100% - file attached. That website always tickles the bug eventually. You just have to actively play the game (battle) long enough - lately it's been happening almost immediately upon entering a battle map.

I usually have a very large number of windows & tabs open - 50+, I don't know if that's relevant. I often have pandora playing - I don't know if that's relevant.

Also, it would be nice if I could attach more than one file to this report; htop reports multiple children for each child using a tremendous amount of memory - way more than I have. I don't know if it's a bug in htop or what. top does not show the grandchildren.

The processes often show as disk-bound in top; is it possible there is some disk driver issue? dmesg shows this: [1619488.695470] Cameras IPC[24599]: segfault at 0 ip 000055579c3e538b sp 00007f4f34ff28c0 error 6 in firefox[55579c3df000+34000]

I have no cam, though I did plug an android in recently. I've never noticed the above message before, though admittedly I don't often look at dmesg. Since no timestamp is included it's hard to say when the above was generated or what caused it.
