      CPU + RAM Limiter in main Opera Browser

      Hello, so the main reason why I'm asking for this feature is because I do video editing and I'm not much of a gamer, and my video editing software takes a lot of resources and so does Opera. Please add the CPU and RAM limiter from the Opera GX Browser to the main Opera browser. Thankyou

        Note that Opera GX's CPU limiter is just a fancy way of setting the CPU affinity for its processes. You can manually do the same thing by right-clicking each Opera process on the "Details" tab in the Windows task manager and choosing "set affinity". This manual method will work for regular Opera too.

        Also, see https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/how-to-permanently-set-priority-affinity-with/4e83fd39-34a7-49fe-a54a-ee891c38b737 for how to create/modify an Opera shortcut to automatically set affinity for Opera.

        There might be something similar for macOS.

        For RAM, there some alternatives at https://superuser.com/questions/1263090/is-it-possible-to-limit-the-memory-usage-of-a-particular-process-on-windows that might work for now.
