I try to keep the RAM usage limit at around 2 or 2.5, which Opera suggests is a low RAM speed, but my friends who are into tech say is a reasonable amount to take.

Normally, even with Hard Limit on, it would sometimes take use about 3GB of Ram, which I am ok with, but recently, it has been using around 4 or even 5GB, which is starting to affect my gaming and music production software.

Is this a bug, or something else? I have attached an image of the RAM being around 4.5 despite the limiter being on at 2GB. If anyone can help me, or suggest fixes, that would be great!

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.

I updated today, so if there were any settings to do so it would be here, on latest.

I hope they can correct this behavior, because it's counter-intuitive and potentially unintentional, however it has been this way for around 2 years since you made this post, so I don't think it's likely they'll fix it any time soon.

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.

When Opera has many tabs, it can become very heavy memorywise. Having workspaces is great, but what if, after working in a particular workspace, instead of restarting Opera, You could just unload memory from that workspace?

It would be pretty useful to let the user choose which tabs should be loaded up and which not

die reCAPTCHA-Eingabe Funktioniert nicht mehr (bei Firefox das selbe Problem nur bei Tor nicht)

Wenn das auch bei Firefox nicht funktioniert, wird das wohl kaum an Opera liegen. Zumal ich damit keine Probleme habe.
