Chrome 20 - VERY laggy

After an Ubuntu 11.10 update my Chrome became utterly un-usable.  I mean really laggy when typing and scrolling.


Found a forum post that suggested the problem is a recent Flash update.

  1. Install the adobe-flashplugin package
  1. In Chrome, go to: chrome://plugins/
  1. Disable the /opt/google/chrome/PepperFlash/libpepflashplayer.so instance of Flash Player
  1. Restart Chrome

Problem fixed, at least for now.
