I have yet to use a fast electron app that didn’t hog ram.
To the extent you understand the tech, though, you understand the problem was never the platform but really the hands it resides in. Nobody thinks its worth the extra work required to heavily optimize a web application.
One needn’t exist for me to be right, as unsatisfying as that may be to a group of folks unfamiliar with frontend perf on the web platform.
You’re being pedantic and are upset that you’re being called out.
The problem is not Electron. It’s far bigger than Electron. I realize this is a take that requires knowledge of the web platform and industry, however, and as such may simply be lost on folks without that context.
You’re being hard headed and am upset I don’t agree with you. Hope that helps
Atom is the Electron-based editor from GitHub. It's way slower than the others.
I can't think of any Electron apps that have low response latency. VScode's is noticeably much higher than, say, Emacs.
I will say though that I’ve yet to work anywhere else that held themselves to a comparable performance standard.
