Microsoft Edge performance and efficiency
For many people who have almost exclusively used Modern and Desktop IE, do you guys notice that Microsoft Edge consumes far more RAM and much higher idle CPU usage than Modern/Desktop IE?
One way to test this is to open cnn.com on both browsers one at a time and observe how much CPU and RAM Microsoft Edge consumes compared to IE. Browser power efficiency is critical for me as I use a tablet primarily.
Also, as an option for those using Intel CPUs, you can download a temperature/CPU frequency monitoring program to see the idle CPU usage for both browsers
