Microsoft Edge extremely slow

Has anyone else noticed Microsoft Edge being extremely slow in opening applications or loading web pages or is it just me? Sometimes it takes ten to thirty seconds to open webpages with the dreaded spinning circle. It would be a while before I could clean install due to lack of funds but I wonder if it's my 25/25 internet or just edge being the culprit?

I think Edge is the culprit. I'm experiencing and a load of other people are too.

I am having the same issue. Anywhere from 1 to 3 minutes between clicking on the icon for the browser and actually logging into either Hotmail or Facebook. I hope this is an issue that is being addressed.

No problem here - it is extremely fast.

The site is slower but it's a site problem, not a browser problem. I was just looking through some pages there. Rolling around the net in general I find Edge to be the fastest browser I've ever used.

- seems to me that Edge is more suited to touch-screens (which I don't have)..
- I discovered ie11 hidden in Windows Accessories, so I've switch to that for desk-top stuff..

- nothing against Edge (- it looks ace!) but ie11 is probably best for me, desk-top wise..

Edge is quite fast however I did notice that my emails seem to show up much faster on Google Chrome and Firefox. When I use Chrome to retrieve my emails they are more up to date that Edge. Does anyone else have this problem.
