If you use Microsoft Edge as one of your browsers and if you want to get the most out of it, you should update it as soon as possible.
According to a recent Microsoft Edge dev blog post, version 134 (released in March) is up to 9 percent faster than previous versions as measured by Speedometer 3.0, which is an open-source benchmark that measures browser performance for real-world scenarios (e.g., the responsiveness of a web app with simulated workloads).
On average, with version 134 and later, the response time for web pages has been reduced by 5 to 7 percent, while the time it takes to launch the browser has been reduced by 2 percent. The overall browser performance has increased by 3 to 9 percent, with results varying based on hardware and software configurations.
Those numbers might sound small, but every little bit counts when it comes to something like a web browser that you’re likely using all day every day—and every bit is a step in the right direction. Other recent improvements to Edge include built-in protection against scareware, Game Assist for real-time hints while gaming, and a free plugin that improves Xbox Cloud Gaming performance.
