This meant that loading times for games and other software that needed Flash to run were shorter. There are a number of reasons that Flash Player was so popular, one being that flash files were very small. It works by running content from SWF files, which is an Adobe specific file format for multimedia and animations. The software is a runtime, or a system that describes the library that coding language runs on. At one point, the software was required to run most interactive applications on the internet.
