Has anyone observed significant differences in system resource consumption-particularly RAM and CPU utilization-between Windows 11 22H1 and 22H2 builds on identical hardware configurations?
Specifically, I am interested in whether changes introduced with 22H2 (e.g., updated UI components, expanded Snap features, added background processes) have had measurable impacts on performance or battery life for devices with 8GB of RAM and mid-range CPUs (e.g., Intel Core i5, AMD Ryzen 5 series). Additionally, are there any known issues with memory leaks or unusual process spikes tied to new features such as the updated Task Manager or File Explorer tabs?
If anyone has performed systematic before-and-after comparisons using monitoring tools (e.g., Resource Monitor, Performance Monitor, third-party benchmarks), please share your findings. Quantitative data or reproducible scenarios would be particularly helpful.
