How do you all find the memory usage compared to Chrome (if used before?)

What do you mean by memory load? How much CPU load the browser needs? ...much less.

One of the first things I did was run them side by side, and I found them pretty similar, Vivaldi a little less.


@psychoadept I am happy for you. I read your post in the Vivaldi Forum. I am stardepp in the Vivaldi Forum. If you like, I can show you more modifications for Vivaldi if you like.

I've found a few, but if there are some you recommend I'll take a look.

If you have a lot of tabs open in Vivaldi, you can put the background tabs in sleep mode to save CPU.

If you have a lot of tabs open in Vivaldi, you can put the background tabs in sleep mode to save CPU.



The latest release(s?) of Microsoft Edge has the same feature, BTW, and you can set the elapsed/inactive time for tabs to enter sleep mode. There is also a group option for IT administrators. (I'm trying Vivaldi out as well.)

In Vivaldi it is even possible to place a Hibernate Background button on the status bar:



This is made possible by this Javascript modification:

Code
(function () {
  // ============================================================================================================
  // Hibernate Background Tabs Status Bar Button Mod
  //    - made by nomadic on the Vivaldi Forums
  // ============================================================================================================
  function hibernateBackgroundTabsButton() {
    // Config ------------

    // 0 is farthest left on the status bar's right grouping of buttons
    // keep adding 1 to the variable to move it over to the right.
    const HIBERNATE_BTN_POSITION = 1;

    // -------------------

    function hibernateBackgroundTabs() {
      vivaldi.windowPrivate.getCurrentId((currentWindowId) => {
        chrome.tabs.query({ windowType: "normal" }, (tabs) => {
          tabs.forEach((tab) => {
            if (tab.windowId === currentWindowId && tab.active) return;
            chrome.tabs.discard(tab.id);
          });
        });
      });
    }

    // shamelessly modified from @luetage's "Random Theme Button Mod" because I am lazy
    function addHibernateButton() {
      // Check if button already exists before adding
      if (!document.getElementById("hibernate")) {
        let div = document.createElement("div");
        div.id = "hibernate";
        div.classList.add("button-toolbar");
        div.innerHTML =

I tried starting a new topic, and got nada; after two weeks, I'll give this a last MB try here, perhaps nudging the intended audience:
--------------
Hello there. I learned about Vivaldi on this Forum, so I'll try asking here first:
I'm still running Windows 7, happily; but, I recently uninstalled the Bing Desktop and lost the dropping search bar that I relied on for years. I use Vivaldi along with Edge and have liked the Bing search bar on the Vivaldi toolbar. Does anyone know a way to have/install such a Bing bar in Edge? I've searched for an option in Settings (preferred, expected) and for an extension, without success -ironic gap in Edge (?). I do know that an Edge address bar can have the Bing search function, but I like the separate bar.
Go MusicBee
Thank you
