11.5 disappointing , any advice?
have been using opera since 9.xx , most stable and snappy browser prior to 11.5. although firefox has always been my default browser , opera handled bulk of my "leisure" browsing (facebook,youtube,cnet tv etc). 11.5x versions have become somewhat sluggish and unreliable. waiting for newer builds and hoping for the best.hits and misses with some websites.
cnet (download and tv): slows it down , even scrolling up n down is tiresome.
8tracks.com : hits and misses , doesn't load the tracks half the time.
youtube.com : frequent freeze and crash
occassional cpu flare-ups ~40-50%
firefox and chrome does fine with above sites.
flash player is up to date, i use ccleaner , iobit asc and smart defrag for weekly brush-up.
opera v11.52 pentium4 2.1 gig dual core 2gb ram notebook on win7 x86.
any advice?
No such problems here. Try a clean install or delete operaprefs.ini and then reconfigure your preferences as required.

done that already. and registry+disk clean-up/defrag .no joy. fresh install ,opened up http://download.cnet.com/windows/ and scrolled up n down. cpu usage spiked to 50%.
Yes that page is problematic — it is sticky here too. It spikes to 99% on my single core PC, though it soon drops back to normal. Reported a site problem.
I never noticed any freezes or crashes on YouTube, and CNET TV doesn't need to be scrolled.
All tracks at 8tracks.com seem to be playing first time.

CNET poor scrolling performance issue is known.
CNET is no longer a good download portal due to this and I swithced to Softpedia a long time for free-ware downloads. So I don't mind at all if Opera has this bug.
I can't confirm any bugs with Youtube - not even any crashing. I view Opera Software's YouTube channel on a weekly basis and it seems to work just fine.

thanx for replies
@ pesala , swapnil - pages with flash (youtube cnet-tv etc) seem to run fine on linux.
it must be the windows flash plugin causing problem. videos on youtube or cnet do play eventually after a brief "freeze" at the beginning.
cnet-tv's scrollbar (on the playlist) works fine after clean install.
will re-install flash and hope for the best. -cheers-
