Microsoft's Rumored 'Low Latency Profile' CPU Trick Could Make Windows 11's Menus and Apps Load up to 70% Faster
Microsoft says the feature could make some apps open up to 40% faster and menus up to 70% faster in early Windows Insider testing.
- Microsoft is currently testing a new "Low Latency Profile" feature within the Windows Insider Program designed to boost CPU performance during demanding tasks like opening apps and interface elements.
- The feature briefly accelerates CPU frequency for one to three seconds during intensive operations like opening apps or Start menus, part of Microsoft's Windows K2 project to address performance issues.
- Early testing by Windows Latest shows up to 40% quicker launch times for Edge and Outlook, with menus loading up to 70% faster than standard performance.
- Sources told Zac Bowden that any impact on laptop battery longevity is "minimal," and the functionality also extends performance benefits to third-party applications running on Windows.
- One Redditor observed, "I'll only believe when I see the results, but I really hope it is true, I miss the old Microsoft." It remains unclear if users can manually toggle the setting.
