Tried Vivaldi cause you did. No likey. Uninstalled.
I gave it up after 3 days also. Was way to CPU intensive and I have a quad core 3.5ghz cpu.

I have " menu meter" which shows the load on my 4 cpu cores and you can see them creep up towards 100% as it bogs down. If I force quit Vivaldi before it locks up and restart it then its fine again until I start opening several tabs again. I didn't notice it doing this until it updated itself a couple of days ago. I tried reinstalling it (the updated version) and it did it again. So maybe something in the latest update is messed up.

If you have more than 4 tabs open at once Vivaldi starts to get bog slow and eventually grounds to a halt, even froze the MacOS twice. This is using the latest version of Yo Semite. Haven't tried the PC or Linux version yet.

So its basically Chrome with a different face but seems fine to use. Installed and runs fine on MacOSX but won't complete the install in Opensuse, always gets "aborted by user" error so will have to see if that can be sorted out later.
i've used vivaldi to do all of my normal stuff and only had one hitch resizing photos in rp (pics that i was posting) other than that it has worked very well
