Tabs don't load and time out, high RAM and CPU usage, browser unusable - help?
Hi Everyone.
I am using the dev build of Edge Chromium (79.0.309.54 (Official build) beta (64-bit)).
I have the following issues:
1 - New tabs are slow to load any pages. I just get the spinning animation and the page itself I go to only half loads and then I get asked to Wait or Exit because it takes too long.
2 - Pages are slow to load any content. So pages I browse to will not load properly and all elements will not load and page is not usable.
3 - I have to refresh tabs many times just to get the website I want to load properly the first time.
I believe this may be due to high CPU and RAM usage on my machine by Edge Chromium. I am not sure how I can investigate it though.
I have attached a screenshot of my task manager. You can see I only have one tab open properly, a Google search, which hasn't fully loaded, and my CPU and RAM are rather high.
Any suggestions?
Many thanks.
So it turns out I may have solved it myself.
I removed the AdGuard extension and everything seems to have calmed down and the browser is usable again.

- Try using ublock origin instead, it's better and doesn't have that problem
