@alexweefs Having hundreds of tabs opened don't make you a heavy user, it just shows that you may have some difficult in closing the tabs that you open.
Back to the issue, use shift + esc to open the internal task manager and check if there is some process using that much CPU, RAM, whatever.
By the way, version 65 is two years old, not that recent.

johnbrook last edited by johnbrookOpera is using more than 25% CPU in the process "opera --password-store=basic --enable-crashpad" every time I open the browser and it stays open whenever Opera browser is open. It's impossible to use the browser like that.
Kubuntu 22.04 64 bit
Opera 93.0.4585.11 installed from https://snapcraft.io/opera

@n4i75irhc1371 Shift Escape to see the processes running in Opera and how much RAM they are using.
RAM usage seems normal.

@n4i75irhc1371 It's not what the image shows. It says that Opera is using around 1.7GB of RAM.

Some heavy pages sometimes start eating a lot of RAM and CPU here, mostly Facebook pages with videos. With Shift-ESC you can quickly see which page is the culprit. Closing that page alone solves the issue. And often reloading the same page in a new tab doesn't produce the problem again.
And regarding the RAM usage on your computer, you should go to the Details tab, right click on any column header, select columns and add the "Memory - Commit Size" column. In my experience that's the most realistic value, and a high number there will make your computer crawl. Order by that column and see what you find.
