"Clearly, the GPU acceleration on Windows makes a huge difference and
means Flash is more efficient than HTML5 most of the time. The Mac,
however, does not expose the necessary APIs for Adobe to do GPU
acceleration. Adobe has said the "the ball is in Apple's court". So
Apple does not allow Flash to run efficiently on OSX by denying the
plug-in access to the graphics hardware? Given these Windows test
results, we think that’s kind of unacceptable . Where do you come
down in the streaming standards battle?"
