I just came across this test. It's a particle test. One is HTML and the other is Flash.
I got...
Flash: 42fps (I'm running flash player 11 beta, 64bit version on Firefox 5.0)
HTML: 11fps (Firefox 5.0)

You are using the wrong browser Joe
Try again using the latest version of Google Chrome.

Still faster but here is my results...
Firefox...
Flash: 42fps
HTML: 11fps
Chrome...
Flash: 44fps
HTML: 22fps
Safari...
Flash: 39fps
HTML: 33fps
Opera...
Flash: 27fps
HTML: 20fps
Looks like Safari does the best with HTML but Chrome is the winner in flash.
EDIT: ADDED OPERA RESULTS

On my computer (iMac) the HTML5 results are the opposite.
Safari : about 30 fps
Chrome : about 50 fps

Chrome:
60FPS with flash
40FPS with HTML
But this test is very unfair. The person who wrote this spent no time in programming HTML5, as it doesn't even use WebGL.

Yes WebGL would make a difference but that's kind of a added feature and would have to be benchmarked separately on its own. That would be kind of like a opengl screen running in flash (which it doesn't) and comparing it.

That's one I haven't tried yet. Will do after I get some sleep.

I just noticed something. When I use firefox it was totally stretched and filled the screen during the test. Safari and Chrome were not. When I dragged them both to fill the screen, flash performance dropped. So it looks like Firefox gave me the best results for flash.
I really wish Apple would fix that issue with Safari. When I click the green maximize button, it should fill the screen. That's so annoying.

Youtube went back to flash after testing HTML5 for 2 weeks or so. And that is good.
Videos took forever to load, the volume control had a delay of 2sec or so. The time till the position bar appeared when hovering over it was several seconds, too...
There's a lot of work ahead. Browser's are not ready yet.
Firefox 5.0
Flash: 50fps
HTML5: 9FPS

Chromium (on my old laptop which is running CrunchBang)
Flash 45
HTML5 32
I'd say my perception of the difference was greater than the result suggested, the HTML5 version was painful to watch.
Having said that Flash is the one thing that makes my pc whir.
