There is something crazy wrong with my Opera as of late. It's consuming constantly 30-35 ish % cpu load (sometimes it stops for a few mins, like twice an hour or so, but then starts again) and I haven't got the slightest clue why. Checked Windows taskmanager for days upon days for the past week atleast and also SHIFT+ESC in Opera itself. I thought it was rich hints extension but its mostly the browser itself and none of the other extensions or coming from some tab I opened. So now I decided to close all tabs and remove all extensions except for uBlock Origin to start fresh and check if it fixed anything, but still no dice. I'm almost suspecting the browser is hacked and being used to mine some crypto or something. And I closed all other non-essential programs too.
Plzzz hallllllp!?Specs:
Opera 99.0.4788.13

@kassandra1 I decided to check your words with my own example. To my surprise, the situation is identical. With standard, active (for me personally) use, consumption varies from ~30% to ~60%. I made comparisons with Microsoft Edge, the situation is radically different: with the same activity the consumption fluctuates around ~10-30%.
But you also can't miss the fact that if you're working in one tab (with 10+ open), consumption fluctuates around ~1.5-8%. Once you start switching through all the tabs, consumption rises to ~35-65%. For example, in Microsoft Edge with the same scenario this percentage is ~15-30%.
This may be due to a feature in the browser that puts the inactive tab into "sleep", and when you switch again the percentage of consumption increases.

@snake-plissken: No it has nothing to do with the amount of tabs. I've been having around 30-50 tabs open for years now in Opera and other browsers as well, yet only Opera does this as of late and its extensive. I hear my fan being somewhat loud and it drives me insane because it doesn't even turn on normally when I'm simply browsing even when I'm just watching YT videos or on Google Maps (with igpu) and especially not when I'm just simply browsing articles. I know how my computer behaves and how loud its supposed to be in which situation and I can tell there's something off with Opera.
And to be fair, Opera has been doing this for way longer than just 'as of late' actually but it has never been this wild.Btw I wish I could manually set certain tabs to sleep with that auto-sleep functionality knowing I won't be using it anymore yet still want to use it later (yeah I know theres Auto Tab Discard, but would've rather have it as default option). So Opera dev-lads and gents, if you are reading this, please make it happen?

Opera using 20-40% CPU on average here with normal webpages open, no streaming.
Task manager showing red under power consumption "Very High".Opera 99.0.4788.13 Win10 on i7-1165G7 with 32 GB.

@vegelund: Exactly and it shouldn't be like that. It should be fluctuating at around 3-8% with some real short spikes to 20% or so whenever you are scrolling a page. Just compare it to a few different chromium browsers and even Firefox with the exact same pages open, exact same addons. Open the browsers fresh, don't open at the same time but do it seperate so they won't fight for memory (regardless if you got 32GB) and start opening a bunch of the same tabs just like you would use it normally. Then start monitoring after 3 minutes after you opened it for a while. Literally FF for me in idle with 40 tabs is between 0,9% and peaking at about 10,2% but mostly somewhere in the middle of those for the most time.
Opera does not make sense whatsoever. -

@kassandra1 I don't know how to measure this in a good way. I just look at the Task Manager for what the numbers are at a random moment.
Like now, I have 21 tabs open, no streaming or ongoing processes in-browser.

@vegelund: Yes and keep looking at the percentage in taskmanager for a while and try to figure out what the averages are in idle mode (just article reading with no streaming going on in the background) and during some 1080p video watching or so. Rather just do it for yourself over a few days when you remember to do it, don't really have to give your answer to me, so you get an idea and you make up your own mind. But just do it if you are actually interested in it and have the time for it.
If it's 20% max in idle that is acceptable (just hope it was spiking there), but if its consistently around 40% then that's completely unacceptable and I think that would mean this is a confirmation either last few versions of Opera are broken for now or there something more to it (mining or w/e).

Hello! I had to downgrade to 98. Opera 99 on Linux Mint is broken, I could not open any menu, and all web pages were white rectangles without any content or info on what went wrong. And the browser was flinching when I tried to open a new tab. Hope there will be a fix soon.

@cmath10 I agree with your comment about "white squares", also encountered this bug. I can add about hangs, crashes were noticed when opening tabs, and repeated.
