These are the latest features in the Stable release of Microsoft Edge DevTools.
Updated labels for CSS selector stats
In the Performance tool, the duplicate Selector Stats label has been removed from the Recalculate Style event details.
The Enable advanced rendering instrumentation (slow) checkbox has been renamed to Enable advanced paint instrumentation (slow). Selecting this checkbox now only turns on paint instrumentation, and no longer turns on CSS selector stats as well. To enable gathering CSS selector stats, in the Performance tool, select the Capture settings (
) button, and then select the Enable CSS selector stats (slow) checkbox.

Fixed whitespace in Activity Bar right-click menus
In recent versions of Microsoft Edge, some context menus in the Activity Bar displayed empty whitespace in the header area at the top:

The top of each context menu now shows the title again:

Heap snapshot improvements
In the Memory tool, there are several improvements for heap snapshots:
Generating heap snapshots is now faster.
HTML elements are grouped by tag name, such as
<body>,<div>, or<img>.Shallow sizes now match JavaScript semantics better, by showing fewer internal objects (unless you select the Show option to expose internals in heap snapshots experiment checkbox and then, before taking a snapshot, select the Expose internals (includes additional implementation-specific details) checkbox).
The Include numerical values in capture checkbox (shown before you take a heap snapshot) has been removed, and heap snapshots now always show numeric values.

View WebSocket message activities in the Performance tool
WebSocket activities have been added to the Network track in the Performance tool, to help correlate JavaScript activity with WebSocket messages. This can help identify whether latency issues are coming from the client's parsing of a message, or from the server's response.
