I have tried both (vsc and atom) and they both have significant typing lag. I want my text editor to be snappy , don't care about fancy features. Unless they plan to port this to c++ or something I am happy with sublime text.
- welly 10y agoThat's what I've found. I've been using Atom for a couple of weeks now and have decided to give up on it. I'm using it on a fairly substantial Macbook Pro and the start up lag drives me nuts. Back to ST3 I guess...
- tokenizerrr 10y agoAbsolutely zero typing lag on Atom here. Wonder what is causing all these different experiences.
- jjawssd 10y agoJavascript
- tejinderss 10y agoMore like DOM
- Wintamute 10y agoSo JavaScript is the reason different Atom users have different levels of lag? You realise they're all using JavaScript right? It isn't optional on Atom.
- nailer 10y agoHuman seem to have very different tolerances for latency. I've had someone call me over to their desk to show that Eclipse could be fast, and what they described as 'responsive' I find 'hair tearingly laggy'. He's not wrong, and I'm not right, we just have different expectations.
- shawnz 10y agoWhen it comes to typing lag specifically, anything more than "imperceptible" is too much for me, and I think most people would agree. Having said that, I have never observed any kind of typing lag from Atom.
