Just to echo what others are saying. Extremely high CPU usage in latest version here. Usually with these two extensions:

Also occasionally in individual tabs, like Tweetdeck or gmail. I can kill off tabs and be better for awhile but not forever.

    I have 2 extensions enabled: Ghostery and uBlock Origin.

    This is what the Edge process taking up 25% CPU looked like in process explorer:

     

    After disabling the 2 extensions, this Edge process went away.

    I have reenabled the extensions, but so far no increased CPU usage from Edge.

    Update: just opened a new tab, and a new msedge process with high CPU has popped up.

    Also noticeable is that this process is using a lot of memory. In Task Manager it's continuously jumping between 150.000 and 250.000 kB and increasing even more as I type this message.
