Wow. Significantly slower than the IDEs I used to think were bloated JVM beasts.

This is one of the reasons preventing me to switch from Sublime.

The other reason is slowness to open a single file from the CLI, it seems Atom doesnt reuse the already open shell like sublime does, there was a tracked issue for that one.

Now I want to see the results from neovim, or anything with a client/server architecture. I'm surprised emacs is so slow (compared to vim) and I wonder if that explains it.

The author of the article I posted has the executable he used to test available if you want to try it yourself!
