Improving the stability of Wahoo (12.00)
By Ruarí Ødegaardruario. Monday, February 20, 2012 8:12:02 AM
It has been a little over a week since the last Wahoo (12.00) snapshot, so here is a shiny, new update. 
As you might expect, internally work continues apace on Hardware Acceleration and other upcoming features. For this snapshot however the focus is improving stability and as such there are several key crash fixes.
In terms of feedback we primarily interested in any new regressions you notice since the previous Wahoo snapshot (12.00-1301), so please keep on topic and let us know if you find anything.
WARNING: This is a development snapshot: It contains the latest changes, but may also have severe known issues, including crashes, and data loss situations. In fact, it may not work at all.

1) Opera use how much memory how can.. If memory is needed by other program,Opera can use really only small peace of your ram memory..
2) Opera is not flash an other participial useful stuff but if flash is consuming a lot of memory it seems like opera use it..
3) And of course Opera in alpha version has time to time some memory leak.. as other browser have.
I am not a programmer (yet). but I think that my post is holly true.. If not I know that some human (maybe bot?
Edit:
I wish releases where Opera can consuming all of free memory (so this releases) and releases with minimum consuming of memory.. I think that this is possible in 1 build.. something like turbo.. ON or OFF..

Agreed. If Opera went from Alpha to final in two weeks, why would my install of Opera Next (12's Alpha) this past December still be in Alpha wen it's almost March. The Opera Dev team does an amazing job at holding back on major releases until a decent majority of the bugs are worked out, and the primary functionality they planned for is correctly implemented. They aren't like Chrome and Firefox developers that seem to crank out a new "version" faster than you can install it, with little changes actually made. Keep up the amazing work!furue # Thursday, February 23, 2012 3:29:14 AM
Also, this very site is very slow. As I type this, my cursor moves cumbersomely; when I was logging in, the cursor was slow, too.

After submitting the crash on http://chrome.angrybirds.com/ and choose that Opera should restart minimal (so without any tabs) it restarts with the angrybirds tab and crashes again if i am not closing that tab fast enough.
Looks like minimal-restart is broken. Confirmations?

Opera fully loads one core of CPU and don't response to anything.
Opera don't hang if I disable javscript.

Version of Jira:
Atlassian JIRA (v4.2.4-b591#591)
The page will open, but you can't type into the fields and it locks Opera requiring a process kill.

1. Pure Virtual Function Called error message after just around 15 mins of browsing, (i do not know exactly what it triggers but i think it happen when i click the tabs while opera is doing something)...
2. It crashes the browser when you play with the zoom slider (zoom in and zoom out fast), then click the arrow beside it, something is triggered there, sometimes....
3. i do not think if it is bug, but i think tabs should reach real top (top = 0), it has margin of 2 pixels, so when you put the mouse pointer to the top part of the tab it restore (resizing) the window....
4. the browser crash here (Settings > Preferences > Advance tab > Voice > Details button)
more powers opera team!
