I don't find that. I had to upgrade our corporate machine to best on market work station to run 11 properly and its still chugs. It's also noticeable slower with apps, a downwars trend from 7 to 10 and now 11.

One thing that totally freezes it for too long is office auto installs ai.exe and aimgr.DLL in some deep folder place. If I delete them the system is somewhat better, but updates put them back

Define "best on the market work station". I've used 11 on a 10th gen ulv i5 laptop and it ran just fine, no worse than with 10 on it.

From the minor direct X improvements, all the way to actually supporting hybrid CPU architectures and 6ghz there's a lot of ways 11 performs better.

At the time of purchase it was latest Ultra9 CPU with 22 cores, 64 gig RAM , nvidie RTX3000, nvme drives. Still sluggish with windows.
