I've been noticing since the 40.0 update that Opera starts to really slow down. It doesn't even take many open tabs for it to happen, either. Slow scrolling/loading and persistent page crashes drove me to the point that I had to resort to Chrome recently. Really unsure if it's a memory shortage or not. Any solutions to this?

40.0.2308.81; Windows 10 64-bit (WoW64)

Issue is still persisting in the latest update (35.0.2066.82). Fix this now!

I think the problem is starting to excaberate a little more, even in the recent version (34.0.2036.50), because some webpages are starting to freeze if three or more tabs are open. Even with hardware acceleration disabled. When is this ever going to be addressed and resolved?

I've been having an issue that whenever I open select webpages, they'd actually freeze up in the middle of loading. I'm forced to close and re-open Opera so these webpages would actually work, since reloading or even clicking the back button doesn't seem to do anything. I've even tried clearing out cache as well as browsing history to see if it'll resolve it, but no luck. Fortunately, it's not every page I open, though. Not so sure if it's a plug-in issue, or if upgrading Windows 10 to the latest build version has anything to do with it.
