Installed Zen kernel now Webpages freeze

I just compiled and installed the current Zen kernel 2.6.27-zen3 now browsing web pages it will freeze for a second or 2 ?
Could be a flash issue im not sure.  Im using Arch 64bit aswell.

Re: Installed Zen kernel now Webpages freeze

Most issues with firefox for me seem to be flash related. Does disabling the flash plugin and javascript help? I'm trying to think of any obvious zen-related patch that might be contributing but can't think of any off-hand.

cheers,

i tried to disable flash but didnt help, i might uninstall it all together and see if it helps.
Could be something to do with Flash using 32 bit binaries on 64bit OS?
