I couldn't agree more. Adobe Reader, and more generally all Adobe applications and plug-ins, are quite painful to use on the Mac. They are very badly optimized, often monopolize most available CPU resources for no particular reason, blocking other applications for several minutes and often inducing crashes. Alas, we can't really afford not using them.

Agreed.
