It's the same with code editors. Sublime Text 3 is crazy responsive and it's a joy to use, however I missed certain features that VS Code had, so I switched, however the latency issues are very noticeable. Typing is a little slower, switching tabs is very slow (like 100-ish ms?) and when you're opening new files you could literally watch the text being color coded before your eyes on my i7 laptop I used back then. Things got worse when I started developing Flutter applications while running the Flutter and Dart extensions. VS Code would sometimes take several seconds to react to me pressing the backspace button, which made it incredibly frustrating to work with.
How is it possible that our computers are so incredibly performant these days, yet seemingly not fast enough for simple document editing or text editing tasks?
