MX Linux Forum

,
KeepassXC works generally better. Good page loading and much better memory usage. No hangs until now.
I have no heavy payloads for my work. This light machine is excellent for its tasks. I had decades a thinkpad, but now I have a new generation computer. light and fast with little energy consumption and no fan!
Let's see how long it lasts.
MX Linux is the best! No systemd.

Bad news. After an update of opera there was no more sound with the notifications. I waited 2 updates, asked on the forum, but I am back to good old firefox. I really need notification sounds for my job.
The main reason to try opera was that firefox filled up my memory. Opera handled this better.
Now I put a nvme disc in the laptop. And on that one I have a swap partition.
Works great. I could not expand the memory above 4Giga. With the swap on the nvme it works great.

As Opera uses the Chromium engine maybe another browser of the "Chromium gang" could do better. I think You could give Vivaldi a try. Nevertheless I'll keep an eye on Opera and test it on my MX-notebook to find out if I can reproduce Your problem. I am mostly using Falkon and Vivaldi for the few websites where Falkon makes difficulties. I did quit Opera when they changed to the 'Blink'-engine and threw away their included mail-client. Interestingly a mail-client now is included in Vivaldi, but that's another story.

Have fun!

Firefox's implementation of hardware acceleration has a known memory leak. Turn it off and see if the situation improves.
