Opera 11.60 & 12 scrolling CPU Usage

The scrolling with Opera 11.60 and 12 use up 95% of the CPU compared to Safari and Chrome sitting at around 30-37%

This results in very choppy scrolling.

Not sure what's up but I hadn't seen anything posted on this.

This is on a 2.26 GHz C2D MacBook Pro using the trackpad if it helps at all.

There is a known issue in Opera 11.60 were pages with position:fixed; elements will cause high CPU usage when scrolling. We hope to have it resolved in future versions.
