Looking at Task Manager, I have 17 processes showing, even though there are only 4 windows open. The total amount of memory being used is over 1GB. What is going on? I have a Yahoo account that is just a tab and not open, one Gmail window for emails and two Facebook.

How many tabs are open? Depending on content, each tab can have a couple of processes, plus one for the browser interface itself - and the updater but that has its own name.

@ronecc Nothing is going on, this is how Chromium based browsers work. Check Opera's task manager to see what are those processes.

Everything is separated into processes, so that's expected. 1GB use also isn't very high. All is good.
