VSCode from Microsoft is also wrapped in electron and uses a fraction of what Atom is consuming. Not being native has nothing to do here.

- PSeitz 10y agoThe memory consumption is a magnitude larger in JavaScript than native. http://benchmarksgame.alioth.debian.org/u64/compare.php?lang=v8&lang2=gcc http://benchmarksgame.alioth.debian.org/u64/compare.php?lang...
- philtar 10y agoSo what? There are javascript editors that don't use as much memory as atom. What you're saying is irrelevant.
- PSeitz 10y agoSo if this is hard to understand, the conclusion, in simple words: the memory consumption for a javascript editor will be a magnitude bigger than native. In my example 66Mb Sublime vs 620MB VS Code (no plugins)
- philtar 10y agohalokonrad isn't talking about sublime. He's talking about Atom vs VS Code.
