For some reason any website or online game that uses Java in Chrome/Firefox/Opera is incredibly laggy. However, when using Safari the same content will run without problem. Has anyone encountered an issue like this, and if you have how did you go about fixing it? It doesn't make any sense to me that Safari works fine with Java but the other browsers all have issues.
 
Safari in SL is 64-bit native. None of the other browsers are 64-bit native yet. To fix this, go to Java Preferences, in your Utilities folder, and reorder the preferences for Java applets (namely, put 32-bit Java first).
