Looks really cool!

The only caveat is that I'm not sure I want to have another electron app chewing through 15% of my CPU...

Surprisingly it has pretty moderate resource usage. I have both iTerm and Upterm running on my laptop, here are the stats. Of course, your mileage may vary.

Running as in just having the app open and idling? Or is this comparing energy efficiency while actually using both apps?
