Chrome is just an installed application. Opera has extensions installed. Excuse me, the rest, I don't understand.

@zelvel Depending on what they are and how they work, installed browser extensions can slow down a browser's data flow, particularly if the extensions must communicate with a server each time a data packet is sent by the browser or a website data snippet is received (for example, if it must cross-check that the target site is 'safe' or the data received isn't from a blocked 'undesirable/unsafe' third-party website).
Likewise, browsers have internal settings that enable/disable various privacy elements, some of which can have impact in slowing down data flow either to or from a website. Default settings for these in browsers can vary, depending on the line of thinking of their creators, and that can impact performance. You can see some of Opera's settings by clicking the settings 'gear' on the side of the browser, then clicking "Advanced" and then "Privacy & Security".
