Nov 18, 2020Edge and Chrome startup speed
The new Chrome build (87.0.4280.66 ) is really quick to open. Much faster than any version of Edge, not that I care much about it. However, at least on my PC, the CPU consumption is horrible, always high.

What are you talking about, edge opens up almost instantly, Chrome just scks!
Edge Version 88.0.702.0 (Official build) dev (64-bit)
Windows 10 latest 20H2Startup boost enabled

At least in my notebook the new version of Chrome (87.0.4280.66 ) opens faster than any Edge version, even with Startup Boost enabled... I don't have how to measure and prove this...

Well you can at least tell us your hardware specs 🙂

Edge and OS are installed on SSD, the opening of Edge 86 stable takes 1 second.
Edge dev and canary, with startup boost, takes half a second or less.
- KamSilver ContributorDeleted Actually, it doesn't depend on the browser. For me, both MS Edge and GG Chrome are really slow to open. Google Chrome opening speed: 3 min. Edge opening speed; 3 1/2 min.
- WittycatSteel Contributorpersonally in chrome i have seen with 87 a small boost on slower machine, but on my Desktop who is a war machine not even a second, but if chrome have it's speed up, when edge will do the same update it will have the very same optimisation.
But in contrary, if Edge have a speedup chrome maybe won't have it (if it's a mechanism of windows 10 who "boost" edge).
- WittycatSteel ContributorIn my opinion the "speed" of edge 87 will be mostly the same than chrome 87 when edge will deploy the 87 update (in stable).
