As the title says has anyone else noticed a drastick slowdown when using the transparency feature in flash with Mozilla based browsers.

My new site [2-cubed.net/v2](http://2-cubed.net/v2) uses transparency and the whole site’s frame rate drops to about 4 frames a second.

So my question is, can we fix this?

i’m not sure why that site isn’t doing it. If you check my site there is a complete slowdown.

Well when i’m using transparency there is a big slowdown. Yet when i’m using no transparency on windows the site runs great.
