700mb of ram not unusual amount safari, depending on how many tabs , web content you're viewing. reset safari, clearing cookies , cache, quit , restart safari if it's not responding well.

flash-related issues:

• find flash version , make sure it's latest version available.
• install clicktoflash (safari), flashblock (firefox) or flashblock (chrome) control flash content plays on websites.
• use youtube html5 video player watch youtube videos, when available. (may impact fullscreen viewing. see link details.)

what mean "ventilation goes balistic"? mean fans spin faster?

launch activity monitor , change "my processes" @ top "all processes", click on cpu column heading once or twice, arrow points downward (highest values on top). also, click on system memory tab @ bottom. take screen shot, scroll down see rest of list, take screen shot , post them.
