Of course keeping load times fast is tricky. I only use flash for slide shows,but not the whole site. I also groan upon entering a flash site, but if used correctly they are great.

In the photography world, at least if you are an outdoor photographer, not a studio photographer, an actual flash is something you carry, but may never use, have in reserve just in case you need that little pop of light to illuminate a poorly lit subject. Perhaps that is why some use it :) I have been a photographer for 15 years or so and I have to say I am not a big fan of flash, never have been, but I am not actively trying to promote my images for a sale basis so maybe that makes a difference.

Granted... some very very awesome things can be done with flash, but it's used way to often un-awesomely. I think it works best for "experience" type websites, like a website for a horror movie or something. I also kind of groan and wait for it to load.

I've only got to see the phrase 'skip intro' to skip the whole site altogether. My feeling is that if the intro is unnecessary enough to merit a 'skip' button, yet my time is still being wasted enough for me to be presented with it anyway, then just how pointless is the rest of the site going to be? I agree that there are instances where Flash has a place though, and just like everything else on the web that has the right eyes looking in the right places, that's what it's all about really - relevancy.
