FWIW, none of the OSX systems I have used handle this well at all.
Flash ads running in a background mozilla window will steal excessive
CPU from the Pro Tools (or DP or whatever) GUI.  Of course the audio is
not affected, just the GUI.

This seems to work OK on Windows, probably due to the "feature" where it
boosts the priority of the foreground window.
