I've used Outlook at a lot of companies and can't say I share most of these experiences.
10s of thousands of emails? Not slow.
Hangs for a few seconds? Not in my experience.
Whole series vs a single meeting? Only when editing, which makes sense. Opening to grab the conference ID? I don't get asked that question.
I've had to use Outlook in some way for the last 20 years, and I just live with it, but I'm also saying... what you describe hasn't been normal for me for a long time, at a lot of different companies. Maybe it's something to do with whoever runs your Exchange..?
