@chuchkyschild said in Opera sucks all the bandwidth even if browser is idle, specially after using Facebook:

4mbps this day and age? there is your problem.

However, one has to keep perspective about this, and that includes software designers as well. In 2016, almost one forth of those living in rural/less-developed areas did not have access to download speeds of 10 Mbps (compared with 94% of urban dwellers having such access). Ref: https://theconversation.com/technology-is-improving-why-is-rural-broadband-access-still-a-problem-60423. The further reality is that many of those having true high-speed access cannot afford it or find it unavailable at the walls of their home (saturated connection lines/servers that cause providers to refuse adding more service, inadequate wiring in multi-family buildings and rentals, and so on). Consequently, web-facing software should properly support a maximum number of users as they currently exist in the general world, not just those who happen to live in a well-served urban setting.

really didn't need all that. i wasn't insulting him other than to say he should of figured out his connect is the problem aka bottleneck in this situation.
