With each difference configuration, you can check opera://gpu to see what it says. Revert the flag to default after you're done testing though. You can also test with the flag at opera://flags/#ignore-gpu-blocklist enabled to test if there's a difference. Or, with hardware acceleration turned on, you could goto the URL opera://flags/#use-angle, change the flag to a different value, restart Opera and see if it helps. Or, maybe the 460 isn't using hardware acceleration while the 560 is and the 560 is using more CPU because of it for some odd reason.Įither way, on the 560, you can goto the URL opera://settings/system, disable hardware acceleration, restart Opera and test things out again to see if it makes a difference. It could be that hardware acceleration is working on the 460 and not on the 560. On both computers, goto the URL opera://gpu and see what's hardware-accelerated or not. If you have the high cpu problem, maybe you can track it down to some hardware setting, or ?īurnout426 Volunteer last edited by burnout426 I would really like to know what is the cause of the high cpu.Īnyone reading this, just click the link above and look at your cpu to see if it's overly high or just nothing at all. There's no way I can monitor extension cpu use, but as stated above, I have all extensions disabled for this posting. I run my laptops very tight as monitored by processexcp and very few non-system apps are running in background. It's very strange that the T460 has no problems at all with this site.

Both of these laptops are brand new but I just prefer to run older windows OS's due to my older applications that I use. When the page is not being displayed, the cpu goes down to normal, around 1%.īut today I noticed quite by accident that my other laptop, Lenovo T460 on Windows 7 with similar hardware does not have the high cpu problem on the very same web site.

The web page takes a long time to process the data, which is something I've always just had to wait until it got caught up.

On my W8.1 Lenovo T560 laptop with 8GB ram and 256 GB SSD, this site goes into very high cpu, 70% to 90% as monitored by sysinternals/processexcp. I disabled all my extensions prior to posting.
