That certainly is not my experience.  H.264 will stretch almost any
processor, and in HD is beyond the capabilities of even the newest
single core.  20% CPU utilization is pretty reasonable for MPEG
decoding, though.  I don't know what you might have tried in the past.

flashplayer and *that particular video*, which seems to be SD
widescreen.
