I agree opening history flyouts takes 3-4 seconds.
the favorites flyout on the other hand got so much faster, at least on Edge stable.
I have a suggestion to make History flyout open faster too. so i observed that if history sync is off, history flyout opens in less than 1 second, so the delay is caused by the sync and probably by the fact that history flyout is checking for latest history entries before showing it to the user.
i think history flyout should open quickly in less than 1 second before checking for new entries, it shouldn't keep user waiting, staring at a blank flyout.
and once it's open, then quickly check if there is any updates. and for doing that it should use a large portion of user's Internet bandwidth to do this task as fast as it can.

HotCakeX I don't believe this is limited to the History flyout. The entire app is sluggish and slow. Tab transitions (switching or opening a new one), general opening the app and viewing the default tab screen (Informational View for me), opening settings, collections, etc. are all slow in this dev release. I happen to be running this on a Surface Pro 7 Core i7, and Win10 Dev Channel 21301 build. Edge didn't have this issue prior to these two builds.
