      Since the upgrade to 41 i can not use OPERA. it previously worked fine for over a year.

      i tried to roll back to 40 but opera auto updates to 41 and then the problem continues.

      getting OUT OF MEMORY errors
      and reload does no good

      have to close

      i uninstalled and reinstalled 41 and that didnt work
      then i uninstalled and installed 40
      but as i said within 10 minutes 41 updates and then the problems start over

      what happened>???? this is really annoying
      I could NOT find any place to stop the auto update

      there has to be a way to run the older version until this issue is resolved
      and why is it happening?

      using WIn10 (completely updated and patched to the latest version).

      help!!!!

        I'm having the same issue. Opera works really slow since version 41. Randomly getting Out of memory page or even plain crashes... Already bothered with it since a few weeks. Thinking of abandoning the browser, because it happens a lot...

              I've never seen such issue here.

              What version of Opera and Windows are you using? Do you use any antivirus, security suite, antimalware or any other program that keeps monitoring your computer activities?

              What about extensions?

              Anything changes if you disable hardware acceleration?

                Have you exactly monitored the free memory before Opera and then the memory used by all Opera processes?

                  Extensions SPeed Dial for Gmail
                  Twitch now
                  ADblock Plus

                    I'm having exact same problem with version 42.0.2393.85 and I also had it with version 41, windows 10. I only have windows defender anti-virus and also have Hardware acceleration unchecked and extensions off.

                        Memory is fine until I start using Opera. Opera processes are hogging all the memory.
                        Nothing changes when Hardware acceleration unchecked.
                        This use to be my favorite browser but now I can't use it. When will this be fixed??

                          Using Opera how? Just opening Opera, without any page opened, causes the issue? Do you need to open some pages for it to happen? If so, which ones?

                          When will this be fixed??

                          To fix it they need to be able to reproduce it.

                            I can open opera no problem but on any website watching any video after a couple of minutes that's when it crashes and says Out of Memory.

                                Do you know if it's a Flash based video or a html5 one? Do you have a couple of examples where the problem happens?

                                it appears when im on twitch.tv.

                                Any other page where the issue happens?

                                  It's a HTML Video format.

                                  I will post it if this issue appears on different web pages

                                      Can you post a screenshot of Opera's task manager at that point or shortly before?

                                        I went to https://www.twitch.tv and nor with the stream on the home page nor with a randomly picked one I was able to reproduce the issue. It does uses a lot of memory but Opera never went 'out of memory'.

                                        I'm on Windows 10 running on a I5-4590 with 8GB of RAM and a Intel HD4600 graphic card if that matters.

                                          It happened on Clixsense.com, engageme.tv after watching some videos.

                                            Today I was only able to watch 5 videos on EnganeMe.Tv and Opera said out of memory. I'm clearing the cache each time to see if it helps but no luck.
