I have a Windows 7 Atom server I RDP into, and Chrome takes about 10 times as long to start up as Internet Explorer (yes, this machine still has IE on it). It’s slow enough that I really hate to use it, but Ubiquiti stuff after a certain FW version doesn’t like IE or pre-Chromium Edge.
My feeling is it’s just part of the trend toward bloated software that assumes you have a fast CPU with lots of cores.
