      hello, i created this topic to understand how opera manages memory. i have 2600+ tabs open. every time i start opera after a crash or after a shutdown, i disconnect the internet and opens it, lets it load (5-10 mins). then use unload extension to unload all the tabs(10-15 mins). now what i want to understand is that do i need to unload those tabs before reconnecting to the internet?
      i recently connected to the internet opened opera and only some (10-15 tabs) completely loaded and other tabs acted like they are unloaded but they showed up in unload tab extension as loaded so i am confused.
      do opera unload tabs when it starts? or did it just try to load all those extensions and failed.

      another question for you guys, operational wise, can there be a limit to how long a session of opera run for? the tabs i have open are open from back in december and the tab count only kept increasing and the session expanding, is there a limit on which i have to close all the tabs shutdown opera with only 1 tab and reopen all the tabs in new session?
      i saw some sort of window id in a config file somewhere and some of the tabs in my session had window id of 200000+ number.

      p.s. if i enrage anyone on the internet with the amount of tabs, sorry. they are all tabs i need open and there is not much of performance hit, it can be a 12 fps slideshow sometimes but it works perfectly fine for me.
