We recently updated to Current Channel (Preview) Version 2606 (Build 16.0.20131.20024) and noticed a significant degradation in performance when loading forms, form controls, and particularly continuous forms.
Rolling back to Version 2605 (Build 16.0.20026.20118) immediately restored normal behaviour, confirming the regression is specific to the 2606 build.
Just flagging this in case others are experiencing the same.

The Access team at Microsoft is aware of the problem and will fix it before version 2606 will arrive in the Current Channel for production use.

    You should now be able to use File - Account - Update Options - Update Now to pull Current Channel (Preview) Version 2606, Build 16.0.20131.20050 that contains a fix for this problem.
