Microsoft Edge already has plenty of features one may consider excessive. Still, there is no stopping: users discovered a new work-in-progress feature that turns Edge Canary into a photo viewer.
Microsoft Edge Canary gets a performance mode for some users
Microsoft s Edge browser is getting a new performance mode, and it s already available for testing if you happen to be running the Canary version of the browser. Spotted by user HotCakeX on the Microsoft Tech Community Forums (via WinCentral), there s a new toggle under the System section of the browser s settings page where users can enable performance mode.
According to the description, enabling performance mode helps you optimize speed, responsiveness, CPU, memory, and battery usage for the browser, though it doesn t specify at what cost those improvements might come. However, it is worth noting that enabling the option disables the timer for sleeping tabs, which likely means it s set to one of the lowest values automatically. Putting tabs to sleep can help save resources and improve performance, so it makes sense that this is one of the settings that s enabled with performance mode.
