      Hi,
      Pretty much out of nowhere Opera is eating up a contact 100-120% CPU usage. My MBP fans are whirring like crazy.

      Everything is up to date (browser, OS etc.) and it does seem to have started doing this quite suddenly.

      In total there are around 16 Opera Helpers running in Activity Monitor. Is that normal!??

      Any help or advice would be appreciated. Thank you.

        @Frontman Check Opera's task manager to see what using so much CPU.

            Thanks for the comments. I did a clean install and so far its sorted itself out so think I might be ok. Will keep an eye on it, though. Cheers!
