If you use flagship hardware, chances are you won’t notice taskbar performance problems, but the delay could be noticeable on low-end hardware, especially older devices. According to Rich Turner, Microsoft’s product team are currently investigating the report and they’ll share the result of the findings soon. This is fairly consistent across multiple traces, multiple clicks on the same entry, etc,” Google dev wrote in a Github post.īruce noted that there are many things the Windows team could work on to address the performance issue with right-click on taskbar entries.įortunately, the bug report has been acknowledged by Rich Turner, Sr. “Thus, in the particular event that I am looking at the total latency is 230 ms. Dawson also discovered that the problem is not limited to the jump list as there is also a noticeable delay when you left-click on the clock on the taskbar. Windows 10’s jump list delay happens with all programs, including Notepad, WordPad, Chrome, Edge, and Microsoft Teams. Google developer believes that the jump list should be faster and he expects the menu to appear instantly, ideally in less than 50ms. I don’t want to wait for my computer, especially when doing simple and repetitive actions that I know it should be able to do roughly ten times faster,” Google engineer Bruce Dawson noted, who observed this behaviour on a device with 32GB of memory and 2TB SSD. “This is well beyond the ideal human interaction times and is a constant frustration. Unfortunately, Windows 10’s taskbar is still plagued with performance issues and there remains a delay of 200-250ms.
