Adobe promises Mac users better Flash performance

Posted on Wednesday, February 10 2010 @ 3:05 CET by Thomas De Maesschalck
Adobe announced it's working on delivering better Flash performance on Mac systems:
"Given identical hardware, Flash Player on Windows has historically been faster than the Mac, and it is for the most part the same code running in Flash for each operating system," said Adobe Chief Technology Officer Kevin Lynch in a follow-up comment to his own blog post. But Adobe and Apple have been cooperating to make things better, he said. "In Flash Player 10.1 we are moving to Core Animation, which will further reduce CPU usage and, we believe, will get us to the point where Mac will be faster than Windows for graphics rendering."
