        @lekiro A simple research would have told you that this is how Chromium based browsers work.

        Opera's internal task manager will show you what are those processes.

          How many tabs did you have open at the time? How many extensions are installed? Music enabled? Tabs can be a couple of processes each, a process for the interface itself, etc. ... so 14 processes could happen pretty easily.

            I have the same thing showing on my Task Manager- I currently have one tab open and two extensions running, yet there are 14/15 tabs in the Task Manager. No music is enabled but I've just accepted this mystery
