[Bug 871412] Re: more than 80% cpu usage when watching youtube video (flash or html5) firefox and chromium

[madbiologist]

Like you, I was also going to suggest it was related to video drivers,
but given that you have high CPU usage when playing an OGG file, that
can't be the cause.

I suspect that this is your problem:

Intel(R) Atom(TM) CPU N270   @ 1.60GHz

That's not a very powerful CPU.  And if I recall correctly, your Intel
Corporation Mobile 945GME Express Integrated Graphics Controller is too
old to support VA-API.  However if the video plays smoothly I wouldn't
worry about it.  Just don't try to do much else while playing the video.
At 60%, you should be able to do other things while listening to an OGG.
