New blog post on performance improvements in Microsoft Edge 81

[Elliot Kirk]

Hi All,

                We posted a new blog article today that talks about some of the optimizations we have made in Microsoft Edge 81.  Swing over to the blog site, https://blogs.windows.com/msedgedev/2020/02/13/performance-optimizations-edge-81/ and read more about it, then swing on back and let us know if you are seeing improvements, or have comments.

Thanks – Elliot

Are you still having buffering issue on Edge 86?
because this topic is old and talking about Edge 81.

@HotCakeXThe Buffering problem I am seeing has to do with streaming videos, ewtube, and other types of live videos like Vimeo. I am convinced mine are being censored by Xfinity. BUT yes with 300Mbs D/L speed I can't stream vids without buffering. I have investigated any background work going on, including crypto mining, and see nothing there to inhibit them. I will drop from full resolution to down to 360 to 180 and finally it will just drop out to the rotating symbol for buffering and I will have to refresh the page to get it working again.

Do you only have this problem on Edge?
are you tried disabling your extensions?

[#5]

@HotCakeX I will try it W/O extensions, BUT it also happens on my Smart TV. That has only rudimentary OS and Browser, NO EXTENSIONS!

[#6]

Then the problem is not from Edge. try calling your ISP, their support should be able to help you.

[#7]

@HotCakeX I agree that is why I accused the corrupt Xfinity. and THEY WON'T HELP.
