Therein lies the irony - to identify performance issues - when I am getting a timeout from said server / cert! And eventually blank screen (Chrome) Browser crash (IE 11), I don't even want to try in Edge!
Replicate on SharePoint online by switching a fairly substantial list between Modern and Classic view.
If it is performance this is trying to fix - then I recommend someone in MS switch it off first!
