Yes, it is.If you're working with a low-speed internet connection, downloading a gigabyte or two - especially over a wireless connection - can take hours alone. It's like complaining that a truck moving 50-100 times as much load is slower than a single truck.

If you're trying to get email from 50-100 different mailboxes, then yeah, not sure what can be done about all those threads attempting to download data across a network connection simultaneously. Even in non-cached mode it should be faster, but I would look into your internet connection and turn on cached mode as well. It seems you may be having a network issue and at the same time you're not using cached mode for Outlook. If this is 50-100 messages, this is not due to Outlook based on the hardware spec you mentioned. How can I increase the performance of Outlook (I don't have any plugins activated) ? Everything except Outlook flies on this laptop. My laptop is 64 Gb or RAM and with a Core i7 with 6 cores (hexacore). I really don't understand why Microsoft made Outlook so slow and slugish. I have like 50-100 mails and every time I click on a folder, I have to wait for 2-5 seconds before the mails appear. If Online Mode is faster, look to repair/defrag/outright clobber your local cache file & rebuild it. If Cached Exchange Mode speeds things up, you should focus on the network between you and the Server (Antivirus, firewall(s), routing tables, BufferBloat, Jitter, etc.). Flip it off if it's on, or on if it's off & let us know the result of just that test, please? So I'd tend to ass-u-me you've already enabled it. Since you have a laptop, you are in the only Use Case that justifies Cached Exchange Mode. Who's responsible for keeping your Server healthy & happy? (Rhetorical question, no answer needed or expected, but they're the ones who would need to fix this for you, IFF it's still a problem in OWA.) I don't mean add-ons.Ĭan you use OWA to test this? If so, and the problem remains, it's on the Server. Outlook has had a lot of 'features' dumped on it over the years, most of which weren't really well considered or crafted many of which are buggy and poorly documented. This is vastly worse in Cached Exchange Mode! OTOH, if you're opening a lot of Mailboxes, "there's yer problem right there!" Outlook will happily let you open enough Mailboxes to completely crush it & prevent it from opening at all. If you only have <100 E-mail messages in your entire Mailbox, you're right, something is terribly wrong. Juandante-BwBzOjIgSnMj0 wrote:I have like 50-100 mails
