Never experienced any freezes with tilix and I use it daily for years now. It's abandonware though.

It's still GTK 3 using VTE and so doing the drawing with Cairo. It (VTE) has a lot of optimizations that made sense when we didn't have working GPU drivers.

But for GTK 4, we can do things much differently and faster.
