Edge process

Hello

 

It's an idea, where ever since Canary's versions, there are more and more Edge processes ?

 

I disabled collections in Flags and still have the Collections process....
How do I turn it off completely ?

 

And I always have more processes listed in the Windows task manager than in the browser task manager

 

Abnormal behavior I think

 

Thanks

    Hi,

    let's do a comparison

    Microsoft Edge Version 80.0.360.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit)

    Google chrome Version 80.0.3987.7 (Official Build) dev (64-bit)

     

    I opened the same 4 tabs in each browser, separately. (4 tabs include: 2 techcommunity tabs, 1 youtube and 1 article on another website)

     

    here is how the Windows task manager looks like for 

     

    Chrome

     

    21 Processes

     

     

     

    And for Edge

     

    17 Processes

      Ok thanks 😉

       

      It's true that I compared to the old Edge


      I just find it weird to have 11 processes (in Windows Task Manager) on a single web page
      And also in the browser task manager, only 7 ...

      The 4 more listed in Windows appear from where... :smile:
