I concur.  What I would also expect to see is Firefox maxing out both
cores for approx 2-5 seconds as it unloads firefox-bin and plugin-
container - this CPU peak does NOT happen if the user has been viewing
Flash 11 content off Youtube... from their standard player.  If I use
iPlayer or 4OD - it seems to close down cleanly.  There are also other
times when the cleardown happens neatly.

It's made more complex in that Youtube seem to use a number of playout
clients.

Re the unload cycle - it's almost like the UI is the only thing that
unloads when the problem is experienced.  You may have received the
issue earlier - IF the problem didn't stand in the way of ubuntu-bug
being able to submit the content.  However, if Firefox cannot reopen and
open the new tab - that incident is never logged.  To submit mine, I had
to kill Firefox-bin, then go and look at ubuntu-bug's doccos on how to
log the data to the local filesystem, then once back in Firefox, get it
to replay the incodent and push the data.
