Hello. I've been running to an issue where after some time of using the browser a process seems to appear out of nowhere that consumes a lot of CPU resources. Ending this process doesn't affect the browser in any way. Any idea what might be causing this issue? This happens once a day every time I use the browser.

Still same issue as last time. Hardware Acceleration fixes this, but makes videos/streams/gifs diashow, laggy and unstable.

@palikka0x45 Yeah it's the same issue. I also have hardware acceleration turned-off since Discord streaming doesn't work properly with the browser having it turned on.

jaekobcaed last edited byIt must just be me since I haven't seen any other reports but since the most recent update for Opera GX, I've noticed that the browser uses a huge amount of disk activity when I try to open tabs while running an application that uses any significant amount of system resources. When I observe this in Resource Monitor, I've noticed it's a high amount of my disk trying to read a DLL, for whatever reason. It'll lock up my entire browser for a few seconds when this happens, though when I'm not running anything other than GX, it runs flawlessly.
Is this only on my end or is anyone else experiencing this as well?

opera takes a lot of memory and CPU and ram too, maybe this is becuase i am using a hackintosh (this makes mac OS run on intel based laptops by changing some drivers or something). i have used GX cleaner to resolve this problem but it is not getting resolved.
Other browser like safari are having 0.0% cpu. Opera has 44% 12 hour power impact on the computer.
please tell me a solution for this

High CPU usage when Downloads tab is open and a file is downloading
Steps to reproduce:
- Start downloading a larger file, to be able to watch the issue (some MB or more)
- Open the Downloads tab (Ctrl+J) with the active download and its progress bar
- Start Windows Task Manager
Result:
The Windows Task Manager shows many new opera.exe processes, randomly appearing and terminating itself again, repeatedly.
The CPU usage of the main Opera CPU process (see Opera task manager) jumps up to 30-100%.
If you close the Opera tab with Downloads with the file still being downloaded, the CPU usage returns to normal values, about 3% in my case.Expected behavior: Keeping the Downloads tab open should have no effect to CPU usage.
This bug has been reported more times in recent years by different users, but never fixed. I have read that it affects only Windows 7 systems, not Windows 10.
Opera GX 82.0.4227.50 on Windows 7 SP1, no extensions installed.

@leocg Yes, plenty of new opera processes, appearing and vanishing in a fraction of second.
