Oh … and re. Hyper - its awesome and beautiful, but it's an Electron app which means you're first loading and starting Electron base, then Chromium's JS & HTML engines, then loading A TON of JavaScript which has to be tokenized, parsed, compiled and executed every time you run it.
This doesn't come cheap. Electron consumes & fills ~100MB working set just to get rolling, plus several more tens of MB to load, compile and execute.
For example, on my 16GB Core-i7 Surface Pro 4, starting a single Hyper instance connected to Cmd, requires 134MB. Starting Console takes < 1s, and consumes 6MB.
