Flash may have been a resource hog in the single-core CPU age, but we have computers today that are much faster, yet Google Chrome is the botleneck, using up gigabytes upon gigabytes of RAM to render a few tabs worth of text and images. The modern "replacement" for Flash, things like WebGL and three.js are also pretty slow on modern machines. Speed isn't hamstrung by the tool, it's hamstrung by the people that made something with said tool.
