I cannot answer that but I can tell you that since I removed Edge decoding is now much more reliable than it used to be. Before I would have to restart DAX many times a day. Now I don't have to. It ran for 23 hours after removing Edge before DAX failed and after a DAX restart it's been running fine.

I can deal with having to restart DAX once a day if it comes to that. It's a lot better than having to restart it every few hours or sometimes even every few minutes.
