One thing I've noticed is that an iidentical flash app played in both Firefox and IE doesn't always play the same.
That's true... browsers differ in how they allocate CPU cycles to plugins. They don't really document this well, either. One extreme is Safari, which has (still?) choked off cycles for background tabs. They each vary, though.
I'm not a C coder but to me, it would make sense to make it a HUGE priority to ensure both versions of the plugin perform identically,
Like Geoff said, whether the Windows Player is wrapped as ActiveX or NSPlugin doesn't change the renderer itself... same code. But the potential performance does vary with the browser and with the rest of the current environment, depending on what that configuration allows the Player to do.
