Microsoft recently announced that the new operating system Windows 10 May 2020 Update will bring many improvements to memory and specifically to the segment heap memory.
What does this mean; Improvements in segment heap memory can significantly reduce the amount of memory used by programs browser, such as Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome.
It probably goes without saying that Microsoft Edge is the first Browser which benefited from these changes and the company claims improvements in memory usage of up to 27% with Windows 10 May 2020 Update.
Question: Is the change in the segment heap memory shortly after the release of Chrome-based Edge released?
Another question: Why didn't Microsoft deal with segment heap memory when its default browser was the old Edge or IE?
Of course, Google will follow suit to take advantage of the improvements to the Windows 10 May 2020 Update and update the Chrome browser for better performance in the amount of memory it uses.
A Chromium technician in fact he explains that this change could help Chrome reduce "hundreds of MB" of memory usage.
All these improvements will only be possible on the devices running with the new update of Windows 10 (May 2020 Update).
