The Opera GX is slow topic

Anyone else think Opera GX is very slow and sluggish? I can't watch a movies or videos without it having to buffer everything. I've had no issues with this on Chrome (yes much bigger company), but Opera claims to be more gamers (who watch videos) and can't control speeds of things. But i have no limiter on anything and everything is so slow.

I just installed Opera GX. literally not even 10 minutes ago.

I added in my bookmarks and such and checked out the settings. But then I noticed that it was incredibly slow, and my YouTube video was lagging and cutting.

Is this an issue with this browser? Or did I turn on a setting that makes it slow? I'm thinking of moving back to Google already.

I found a fix for this that worked for me.

1. Go to opera://update
   2.Go down to 𝐑𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲 and click 𝗞𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝗺𝘆 𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗮 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝘆 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗲𝘁 𝗢𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗮 𝘀𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀.
2. Restart your browser and everything should be fine.
   This is the only method that had worked for me.

@felinex I found a fix for my issue.

For some reason my image and video enhance was turned on. I turned that off and it works perfectly fine now

@mewssyz Thank you a lot dude, my opera gx was really f*ed up when i used youtube. Turning hardware acc off solved the problem that had been haunting me for weeks, thank you again.

Well, I have the same Problem, Opera GX is extremely slow, Buffering Videos on YouTube etc takes hours. No there is definitely enough RAM and other resources on my PC available (32GB RAM, i7-11700K CPU and extremely good net speeds) also I already turned off VPN, Hardware ACC and some other things that could influence it, but still it takes more time than any other Browser I ever used.
So what else could be Reason for this slowdown, what else can I do to fix this Problem that shouldn't even exist in a "Gaming Browser"?

@the-draco-original Same here. I recently switched from chrome due to security concerns and I initially really liked opera gx due to its customizability and various other features.

It worked fine for the 1st month and now all of the sudden its become too glitchy and takes forever to open sites like youtube.

I have a problem with my Opera GX. (8 gb ram)
My opera worked well last week, it wasn't freezing or anything but now its slow even though there is no tabs open, it uses 1 gb when there is only GX Corner

Here is how it looks on task manager:

Opera works very slowly, pages take a long time to load, I don't even know how YouTube works, and Facebook is the same. I clean the entire browser every day and I still have 3.5GB of browser files...

@leocg what do you mean by it's normal ? I have less than 10 tabs open and I get 36 in my task manager

@nizar-arena Task manager doesn't know how many opened tabs you have, it just show the number of running processes, what includes more than just opened tabs.

Hi guys, my youtube was being slow and unresponsive and I noticed that it was blocking the ads even though I didn't have adblocker on.

I then noticed Opera GX has a setting to block the ads - I disabled this and instantly noticed a massive difference - back to normal

I recently got the hunstman mini from razer and it has a color setting bound to opera or whatever, but when i turned off the reactive lighting to apps it suddenly started runing smooth. I dont know if it actually has something to do with it but might help some of you if it does

You know, maybe it's the mods that you apply on Opera, but its super laggy and I've tried everything

Plus I can't seem to join Roblox, even the website. And I checked with my friends, Roblox hasn't been down for a while. So it has to be Opera. Even turning off VPN and adblocker on youtube won't help...

My Opera GX browser on Windows 11 becomes extremely slow when loading pages, especially after performing a new search on the same domain (example: searching on Google or Amazon after entering those pages a few minutes before), like if it refuses to do a new search, and sometimes even not load ever.

That doesn't happen with other browsers.

I recently noticed my Opera GX being slow as hell. It started happening a week ago, I thought it was my wifi or something, but it might be the new update. But again I haven't received an update before this started happening. So I don't know what to do at this moment.
