Very curious as to why this so much more responsive than overleaf and sharelatex. Anyone?

I'd guess that the rendering is done client side here and can be done with partial updates. ShareLaTeX and Overleaf have to do a full LaTeX pass on the server just to show the change of a small part of the document.
