The expectations of advanced text editors have expanded to create performance concerns which do not apply to the most basic text editor. It's basically what happens when somebody tries to elevate a vulgar art by doing it big: like making the world's largest macaroni sculpture, anything can be done big enough to meet limitations. In addition to this, Atom also has the problems of being an Electron app.
