That's an unusual experience. Based on a handful of benchmarks[0] done by the author of JOE, VS Code is sometimes an order of magnitude slower than Notepad++ and Sublime at some tasks.
I use VS Code pretty much exclusively these days myself, so I'm not picking on it by any means.

- iaml 10y agoI have the same experience on my pretty slow laptop. Granted, my projects aren't big, but I would take vs code over sublime any day. Interestingly, atom feels much slower compared to both.
- FridgeSeal 10y agoThat's because, unequivocally, atom is slower. https://pavelfatin.com/typing-with-pleasure/ https://pavelfatin.com/typing-with-pleasure/
- iaml 10y agoSurprising part isn't that atom is slow, it's that vs code isn't and they both use electron.
- Kiro 10y agoWell, I haven't benchmarked it so it's just how I feel. Maybe there's something in the UX that makes it feel more performant.
