Research direction
No source files or tests are named. Reproduce the slow authenticated load in the Edge extension on Windows 11 with version 2025.6.0, then compare it with the 2024 extension that reportedly did not show the problem. Done means identifying the regression and verifying that the extension opens within a reasonable time.
