Or is it just me? I know there were updates that supposedly fixed it but my flash player is still sluggish, and HD/larger size videos are unwatchable. Flash is perfect on my win7 partition, and it used to work great in 10.5. What happened?

Flash is a problematic piece of software for Macs and, at least for me, was with 10.5 as well. It consumes many more resources than any browser plugin should. If you're really bothered, you can install the 10.1 beta but be warned that it is unstable (crashed Opera like crazy here) and it is hard to uninstall if you decide to go back to 10. That said, it was noticeably easier on my CPU.
