        I examined the case by comparing Opere 63 and 64 and it turns out that you are right with this sound.

        I listened to the mp3 file from the hard disk through opera 63 and 64:
        opera 63 5-10% cpu
        opera 64 47-60% cpu

        Youtube:
        opera 63 30-35% cpu
        opera 64 60-70% cpu
        opera 64 25-30% cpu mute tab

            @arkus1995 I can confirm this problem. A very strange addiction if you turn off the sound. In other browsers based on a similar version of chromium, I do not see such a problem.

              Thank you so much for pinpointing this bug to audio.
              When I mute a YouTube video, the cpu usage goes from 40%+ to 15%-.

              Now... what I have to do?

                  @ab-garcez I tested, it looks like this problem is fixed in the current version of Opera Developer.

                    @johnd78 cool, thanks. It's something I'll have to wait. Opera just update to 65 and it's still consuming a lot of processing power when playing audio - it happens on Spotify as well.

                      @ab-garcez It seems like the issue is caused by animated tab icon. When you hover mouse over tab and animation stops, CPU usage goes down significantly. I found this suggestion on the other forum and it happens to be right.

                            @ab-garcez A long time ago, the Opera browser had the #tab-audio-Indicator flag, and it seems that the current CPU loading problem is related to the tab-audio-Indicator animation.

                                          @no9or9 Funny, because I read this article on dobreprogramy.pl but I did not look at the comments.
