Visiting this site bumps CPU usage to 100%

http://www.tv2sporten.no (Norwegian)

If I have any article on that site open, one of my CPU cores go to 100% and the CPU fan starts humming. The second I close the tab all is back to normal. Anyone else have the same problem? Is this a bug in Opera? Linux only?

That is a big page with a lot of images. I'm running in VirtualBox with 2 cores allotted. When I first went to the site, the monitor was showing 50-75% with a few peaks up near 100 while scrolling. After going to a couple of other pages and then coming back to the home page, it is in the 20-40% range.

Thanks for the reply. Sounds like you don't experience my exact bug/problem. My CPU stays at 100% as long (for hours) as the tab is open, it doesn't matter if the tab is way in the background (I have 40-50 tabs open) or if it's at the front and scrolling.
