But Browser and GPU process are common.
I can't find Video handler extension in Extensions.

A fresh install on my system looks like:

Ouch!
Your test is on Dev., it looks similar.

Now it has the Video handler.

I have installed Opera developer 51.0.
But your install's one is also greater than Chrome.

Opera has an integrated Speed Dial, an integrated Sidebar, VPN and adblocker, where Chrome is just a blank (useless) browser, I don' see what's the point here, it's vs.

Some things from the above are off-loaded to the GPU

I disabled all extensions in Opera 49 (lazy loading of tabs) and tested it against Chrome, the new Firefox, Dragon, Icedragon, Ghost, Brave and Epic and it uses at least a gig more memory. I don't know what the problem with it is these days but after it being my main browser for some years now I think I am going to have to ditch it.
