Thank you all for bringing this to our attention. I'll ask our team to look into this and see if there's anything we can do on our side of this. If you haven't yet, can you please submit diagnostics through the browser for this? (Shift+Alt+I)

Thank you for passing this on to your team. I've already submitted diagnostics last week, I just don't know if this will help you as the website is internal only (our age old ERP system).

 

We finally moved from IE11 to Edge last month and I thought that I have tested everything thoroughly. Seems like I didn't. For now it is not a big deal as there aren't that many views with huge tables, but everyone who stumbles across them is complaining about the loading times.

I will now try to rewrite our table generator with grid-layout, proof of concept is looking very promising (rendering times down to about 200ms).

 

Nevertheless it would be amazing to see a fix for this anytime soon.

 

Also thanks to @cjc2112 @sauravyad500 for confirming my test results :).
