Huh, the results seem surprisingly uniform. The difference between different compared editors/terminals is basically one frame, and the standard deviations don't seem remarkable either. Maybe the biggest observation here is that the buffer state can significantly impact the latency in some cases (the added 10ms on vscode "aa" test), but even that was a sidenote here.
It would definitely be interesting to have more software and hardware tested, I would imagine there is lot more variance out there.
