Comment on AMD Contest: What Would You Do With 48 Cores?parent

I believe the next version of Firefox will be able to run flash in its own thread, so having a bunch of extra cores would indeed isolate the evil from the rest of your browser.

I've been running nightly's lately and it does indeed "isolate evil". Instead of a browser crash I now see a message at the top of the respective page telling me that the plugin crashed.
