Chrome - Pepper Flash ( FP version 12 ) Painfully Slow. Anyone else?

Here's a video that demonstrates how the January 2014 update to Chrome's "Pepper" Flash has crippled the experience of our Flex / Flash Web App.

In short there's a 5 to 20 second wait between screens ( states )  and our customers are complaining.

Our App used to work great in Chrome until Mid January.

I'm amazed and alarmed that the issue is still there now.

Here's what you're up against,

Adobe writes the base code for Flash Player, and then hands it off to Google, who adapt it to a PPAPI plug-in (it's NPAPI when Adobe writes it). It's then "PepperFlash" and Google embeds it in their Chrome browser. While Google is pushing a "webwide" move to PPAPI Flash Content, a reinvention of the wheel so to speak, not everyone "got the memo", and Google is slowly making it so that PepperFlash will block NPAPI Flash content from running properly, and you have to disable PepperFlash to force the NPAPI plug-in to work, which sometimes fixes it, sometimes not. I have a feeling this is only going to get worse. HTML5 will eventually resolve the video end but game developers need to come up with something that won't require a plug-in.
