With this new version, I suddenly have 112 Opera processes again and over 6,000 MB of RAM used with exactly the same number of open tabs (in the task manager. I don't understand that.

Again!
Some seconds before Opera used more than 11.000 MB of RAM.
I have still my 65 tabs open, no up- or download, no music or movie in the background. Nothing. The tabs are just open. What is Opera doing there?

@leocg, yes, I know. But I'm not going to post this whole list here. I don't understand most of the entries anyway. :))
A lot of "Dedicated worker", "Shared worker", "Subframe", "Dedicated worker: blob" …

@ralf-brinkmann: Thanks for reporting this! We’ll investigate the issue and look into what might be causing the high RAM usage.

@ralf-brinkmann: Did you notice this issue starting with the latest version, or was it happening before as well? We’re looking into it.

@daria19, as far as I remember I found this out starting with 118.0.5419.0/ and 118.0.5425.0/, when I wrote something about that problem. I seemed to be a bit better with the fast update 118.0.5428.0/, but now it's worse than before.
Before I start a new update or upgrade, I always clear all browser data except the cookies which are allowed to be stored. Then I close Opera and save the whole folder to another SSD before updating (stand alone installation).
Maybe the problems started in an earlier version, maybe it was using significantly more RAM earlier. I don't know, I don't look at the task manager all the time. But I'll pay more attention now and see what happens if I keep clearing the browser data.
