Both Latitude E5540 & E6530 laptop models slow after installing Windows 10.

We are deploying Windows 10 64 bit Enterprise and I recently updated two models:  the Latitude E5540 & Latitude E6530.  On the two laptops I worked both models were very slow.  I updated all the hardware drivers - Nic, Video, Chipset.  We are deploying Windows 10 build 1607.  We are not deploying the Creator's Update - 1703 yet.  Both these laptops are on Dell's compatibility list as being tested.

To secure our laptops we also use Microsoft Bitlocker which makes them even slower.  Has anyone come across issues?

Are they equipped with 8G of RAM?  If not, they're going to be swapping a lot to disc - which will be slow if they're running conventional hard drives rather than SSDs.

The Latitude E5540's have 8gb memory and is pretty slow.  The Latitude E6530's have 4 gb memory.  They both have conventional hard drives.
