If you disable javascript, the site works and loads in ~50ms. You should consider deleting all/most of the JS :)

I am forwarding all this feedback to engineering, we're on it :) Thanks for diagnosing potential causes!

  It is nice to see MS people out and approachable. Generally speaking, as I posted in another child comment in the same thread, this is the biggest let down of MS redesign of the last year and led to a huge backlash in a HN article that escapes me. If your JS hangs my browser for static content, I avoid your page and recommend others do too. I doubt I am the only one!

As someone who works in IT and generally does not like opening pages with JS full on (yes, I am one of those NoScript uBlock elitists), it is insulting that almost no KB article or other main page will load without throwing an enable JS blanket. It has been discussed here before. As an IT professional, the only system that upsets me more than Microsoft on this point is Symantec. I expect clean minimalist doc pages from system dev and anti-virus companies. I do not need fancy MVVM pages and tracking JS to know what you fixed in your latest bug release, thank you!
