      I've a similar problem, but I don't think that's just Yt that causes the lagspikes and loading times.

      I tried now for ~one month to get a few games of mine to function propper. (wow, my grammar today -.-)

      So, now I'd get it, but than I noticed, that Yt-Videos have (seems like) randomly lagspikes and a huge loading time. In addition to that, if I want to start/stop a video and click on it, Opera needs ~2 secs to notice what I wanted to do. Even the tab close needs a few sec to get his own function. Or if I wanted to close ad's.

      I had to install the K-Lite Codec Pack and this Microsoft nonsense software for the Windows Media Player, with Skype and another nonsense programs in this package. Before that, I had to install almost my complete C++ Redistribution packages new.

      So, my games are working now, but my Opera does not (propper).

      My System is:

      • OS: Windows 10 Pro N, Version 1703, OS Build 15063.483, 64bit
      • Processor: AMD FX 4100 Quadcore 3.60 GHz
      • RAM: 8 Gb DDR3 RAM
      • Graphics: Radeon RX 460
      • Opera: Opera Version 46.0.2597.46 (PGO)

      I have Avast, and no problem detected before.
      All of my drivers and/or programs where complete and updated.

      P.S.: I noticed, that Opera had 7-9 instances of itself in my Task Manager and if I want to look a video, my processor jumps from 7-11% to 70-80%.

          I have avast

          And did you check with it disabled?

          Rams get filled up.
          I believe it pre-load video

          You can check it with Opera's task manager

          ut while I am watching only one at time, it should not load them into memory.

          And how do you suppose to watch the video without it being in memory?

            I don't see how installing a codec pack could solve that issue.

              as per brokendust: "Yt-Videos have (seems like) randomly lagspikes and a huge loading time. In addition to that, if I want to start/stop a video and click on it, Opera needs ~2 secs to notice what I wanted to do. Even the tab close needs a few sec to get his own function. "

              Same here.

              And it is the same for embedded videos or directly at YouTube..

              When I load the same page in Chrome everything works fine.

                    There seem to have been some reports on VPN causing a memory leak or something like that.
