Well, kind of...
>> We find that disabling the JIT does not always have negative impacts. Our tests that measured improvements in power showed 15% improvement on average and our regressions showed around 11% increase in power consumption. Memory is also a mixed story with negatively impacted tests showing a 2.3% regression, but a larger gain on the tests that showed improvements. Page Load times show the most severe decrease with tests that show regressions averaging around 17%. Startup times, however, have only a positive impact and no regressions.
Most people are going to care about page load times more than anything else by far, and that's the one that quite clearly took a hit without JIT. It's great that no JIT makes Edge open faster, but how many times a day do you have to quit and restart your browser?
