First thing I'd do is upgrade to Opera 84.

@burnout426 The problem persists. This time I got the message "insufficient memory". I have the last version of Opera.

Hit shift + esc in Opera and monitor the Google Drive tab and all the doc tabs that are grouped together with it. It seems you might be hitting the Chromium RAM limit for the shared process that all those tabs use. Or, if you're not hitting the process limit, depending on how much RAM you have on your system, you might be using up all your RAM.
If that's what you're running into, the only workaround is to only load so many doc tabs at once and close all of the doc tabs and the Google Drive tab once in a while to free the RAM used and open the Google Drive tab back up.
Or, if you have enough RAM on your system, you could use one or more standalone installations of Opera in addition to your regular Opera, and load some docs in each of those too.

Is there any way to stop tabs from using memory when they are in another workspace? I have a lot of tabs stored in workspaces....

@yakichan No. Workspaces are just a visual separation of tabs. Underneath, they're still all in the same window in the same tab bar.

You could try filing an issue at https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/list to see if something can be sorted out in Chromium. If so, then all Chromium-based browsers would benefit from it, not just Opera.

Right now I have the same problem with Atlassian Confluence
It's starting to be a real hassle to use Opera in a work environment.
I would like to recommend it to my colleagues, but because of this inconvenience I don't think they will use it.
