It didn't run reliably indeed: it was quite a heisenbug. Firefox  
would even crash when users were not actually viewing Flash. Only  
looking at the segfault error messages from the kernel revealed that  
it was nspluginwrapper that was causing the crash. I'd strongly  
advise anyone to use 32-bit Firefox if (s)he wants to view Flash.
