          I'll test and get back. 10x for writing.

            Yep, it still happens on latest Opera. OK, I'm on a portable one but the official one from Opera's site. Here a screenshot:

              I tested again with Opera 67.0.3575.97 64-bit. Still can't reproduce the issue. I'm on Windows 10 OS Version 1909 (Build 18363.657). CPU issue is around 4 or 5% when downloading http://releases.ubuntu.com/19.10/ubuntu-19.10-desktop-amd64.iso.

                Ya, on Win 10 it doesn't happen indeed. But on several W7 machines with latest Opera it happens consistently.

                      What is common for those W7 machines? Some third-party software (antivirus, security suite, VPN, network monitor etc), interfering with network traffic or disk writing?

                        All using the same Opera portable from the same drive? Can you reproduce the problem with Opera on the main system drive?

                          You are using a remote resource which is effected by externalizes making benchmark numbers. Hence for testing, I changed to local resource.
