May have to test with another browser to see if there's any difference. Though the issues are only within the browser so far.

nope. Do not do what i did. do not force quit gpu process.
Youtube thumbnails stopped loading, Google Docs stopped working, it became a nightmare. Eventually just reinstalled a clean version of Opera. Don't do what I did, just restart Opera like a normal person.

Some heavy pages sometimes start eating a lot of RAM and CPU here, mostly Facebook pages with videos. With Shift-ESC you can quickly see which page is the culprit. Closing that page alone solves the issue. And often reloading the same page in a new tab doesn't produce the problem again.

And regarding the RAM usage on your computer, you should go to the Details tab, right click on any column header, select columns and add the "Memory - Commit Size" column. In my experience that's the most realistic value, and a high number there will make your computer crawl. Order by that column and see what you find.

No, the crash reporter has to run as a separate service while Opera is running to be able to catch a crash if it occurs. That one is fine. You running Stable, Beta, or Developer?

@flic When you installed 64 bit, did you just keep the same profile folder so settings would be as they were in the 32 bit??
