Windows 11 gets a burst of speed with Low Latency Profile update

Microsoft is rolling out the Low Latency Profile (LLP) feature via KB5089573 to eligible Windows 11 24H2/25H2 devices, delivering short bursts of maximum CPU frequency for 1–3 seconds to speed up actions like opening Start, Search, flyouts, and app launches—promising up to 70% faster flyouts and 40% quicker launches.
