3381 vivaldi crashes at upper left menu icon
-
having had slowdowns and zombie failures while using vivaldi on kubuntu20.04, upgraded the kubuntu one step to 22.04. This made vivaldi upgradeable from 3329 to 3381. The upgrades seemed smooth and complete, but after the 22.04 upgrade and 3381,I discovered that just activating the V menu button (upper left) causes a crash (see terminal error reports below) . It is possible to start the browser and use it but the use of V menu gives a cascade menu that is frozen at the WINDOW menu item and cursor cannot choose any other menu item (I discovered this while seeking to confirm version via the HELP item.
even though the workspaces and other features seems to be working along with settings configs and the toggles set by "vivaldi:// There dont seem to be any visible pop ups
I dont want to be locked out of the available menu items, how can I recover this? I do use a lot of workspaces and probably the window item that is frozen in the menu cascade is related to some faulty window. I have not yet tried deleting either a named workspace or the default unnamed workspace that is at top of name list.
any help much appreciated
tmayHere is terminal feedback that had a workspace collection that apparently included some tabs with authentication and lazy load off

Hi, you get Vivaldi to crash with many many tabs open using the V menu.
In my tests I never got it to crash with < 800 tabs but always with > 900 tabs.
This seems independent of the system memory, all crash logs show only OOM, out of memory error.
Do you use many tabs?Cheers, mib

Yes, your explanation fits the context on my workstation.
I have over 1200 tabs in over 50 named workspaces.
i can run vivaldi in any of these workspaces but the bug you have explained is that the "V" menu at the upper left corner becomes non functional with a crash upon any attempt to activate the cascading submenus.
I wonder what kind of hardcoded data structure exists in the code related to workspaces. It is likely that workspaces are stored as a set of separate windows with some sort of memory array to store the URL's of each workspace. I dont use new windows, but love to keep tabs in named workspaces and swap them out.
right now I havent yet invested the work in trimming down each workspace so that the total tab s falls under 800. So I am running without the graphical organization of a menu tree but able to use my workspaces and the settings page and vivaldi: config choices.
I assume it is waiting its turn for some correction in a future version. Thankyou for explaining the context for this bug/failure.

Hey guys,
Good news, good news!I had this issue for ages, and well it seems this is not a priority for them to fix; I assume not many people have 1500 or 2200 tabs opened like a few of us here, me included!
I spent a couple hours on this issue tonight; most of it was to reduce my tabs to under 1000 tabs. As mentioned above my problem goes away when I have 990 tabs, but hit about 1000 tabs and it begins crashing when trying to use the menu. That might have helped getting to the root cause, but this is no solution by any means. The way I work, I almost always will have above 12 or 15 hundreds of tabs opened, so still need a real solution.
I investigated further and the problem is that the Window menu is trying to list all open tabs by default, no matter if they're hibernated or not. All I did was go to the Settings->Appearance->Menu, and there under the Window menu, right click on the very last item and hit delete (assuming you don't use this menu for finding your tabs).
Voila! the issue is gone for good, go nuts with your tabs and open 1000 more if you'd like, without the browser crashing on the menu ever again.
This has been bugging me for so long now, I hope it helps a few of you out there who have lots of tabs in Vivaldi!

@EliteIman I try to ping a dev abut this old bug.
VB-95566 The browser is crashing when some options of the Vivaldi Menu are chosen -
Thanks.
Even if they don't have time to work on this, maybe removing the option of showing all tabs when over 800 or 1000 tabs, would be a very simple workaround. It's much better to not give the ability when the browser can't currently handle it, than having it but making the browser crash 100 out of 100 times you try to use the menu. Just my 2 cents.

@EliteIman
I will throw your suggestion in bug tracker. Devs can read tracker and decide if this could be a solution. -
