Adobe Flash is faster than 10.1 HTML 5 standard
The video encoding expert Jan Ozer is a comparison to the conclusion that Adobe Flash version 10.1 on Windows PCs faster than HMTL5 is. The reason: In Windows, Flash can benefit from hardware acceleration, which greatly relieves the CPU.
Adobe Flash is very widely used, when it comes to cross-platform playback of video and other graphic content goes, but Adobe, the manufacturer had to recently put up a lot of criticism. One of the biggest enemies of Flash is one Apple CEO Steve Jobs. When Flash, the CPU load of a Mac too, but not because the computer maker is innocent.
Under Windows, the new version of Adobe’s Flash 10.1 version will be even faster than the upcoming HTML5 standard. This is the result of video encoding expert Jan Ozer is a test for the respected tech blogReadWriteWeb. The surprising result of the comparison tests is explained by the possibility of Adobe’s Flash 10.1 to use the hardware acceleration.
Specifically, this means that the CPU must do all the work is no longer alone in displaying graphics in Flash, but can get help from the GPU. Windows users with fast graphics processor will continue to observe a significantly lower burden of their main processor.
While the graphics capabilities of the Linux operating system to prevent Linux users in a similar way by Adobe Flash profit 10.1, Mac users have, thanks to the company’s policy of Apple Corporation in the cold. Apple seals from its hardware, so not Adobe on Apple computers can use the hardware acceleration.
This does not mean that criticism of Adobe Flash in the future, nothing more, for example in terms of stability and security. The performance problems should belong for Windows users with the appropriate graphics hardware, but soon the past.
