That there is a possible issue with memory management seems likely, based on what I have seen during shutdowns. But whether that is caused by something in Vivaldi's UI, or something more fundamental in the Chromium V8 engine (which handles the memory management) is something that is not possible to say at this time.
OK thanks for the feedback, I now understand it better why it's so hard to pinpoint this problem. And yes, I have never seen Vivaldi hanging in memory before, it all started with 6.4 (I upgraded directly form 6.1 to 6.4) but people have been complaining about about performance degradation and Vivaldi not being able to exit memory directly since 6.2 apparently. It usually takes around 5 to 10 minutes to exit from memory. And this only happens after Vivaldi 6.4+ has been active in memory for a couple of hours and probably also if quite a lot of tabs are open. I have tested it with Process Monitor and no third party app/process seem to be involved with this problem. It's really a shame because I can't upgrade 6.1 because of this problem. Also, can you perhaps take a look at this bug (see link), this is another reason why I can't upgrade to 6.7, this bug has been present since 6.4, should be easy to fix I suppose.
