Edge is too slow in loading webpages
8-10 is super reasonable, I was mostly checking for something like 'I have 900 tabs open at once' 😉
Whole browser freeze is super interesting, and you have a fairly reliable way to trigger this... hm. Do you mind opening the Browser Task Manager (Shift + Esc on Windows) and navigating to one of the sites that causes slowdown and seeing what's going on Memory and CPU wise when you do? I'm expecting something to spike here, just not entirely sure what yet.

I did try loading and reloading both Outlook and Onedrive (since these are the sites that showed the most slowdown), and did see some spike in CPU usage. I'm not entirely sure, if this is pretty normal or if something is off here, so i have attached the screenshots of the spike here.
The first screenshot is taken when i reloaded Outlook and the second one is when i reloaded Onedrive. Hope these screenshots help.
Also could you please tell what those numbers corresponding to the CPU usage represent. They cant possibly be percentage of CPU usage, since 171.8 cannot be the percentage of CPU used right?
- Two years. Any news? Edge on my two laptops (two different CPU platforms , two Win 11 SKUs) is so slow loading pages I really consider going back to Chrome. No problems with any other browser (Brave, Chrome, Firefox, etc.).
- Thanks for submitting! I've gotten your feedback over to the team to take a look and will circle back if they have any additional questions!
- Hey, i have just submitted my feedback with a recorded video and a detailed description of what is happening in the video. I have also mentioned your username as you have requested.
Hope that the performance team can identify whats going and come up with a solution for the issue. - Thank you for trying that, and I'm sorry to hear it didn't work as expected. It's time to bring in the big guns and get the performance team involved, can you please submit feedback in-browser (... menu on the top right > Help and Feedback > Send Feedback)? Please include your email address and check to include diagnostic data, and if you don't mind selecting to recreate your problem and opening Outlook (since it had the higher system load of the two) that would be super helpful. Last piece, please include a description and add my username into it, and let me know when you've submitted. I'll grab it up and get it to the performance team for a closer look and hopefully some advice on next steps.
- I just tried clearing my entire browser cache for all time. Apart from losing all my saved passwords, i couldnt see any improvements on the browsers performance🥲
- I know this isn't going to be a super helpful answer but I don't actually know what the numbers represent, I sort of consider them an abstraction on overall system load. Both of those are *quite high* though. Sorry for asking you to take the inconvenient path here, but do you mind fully clearing your cookies and cache for all time?
