I really love Atom over any editor I’ve ever used in the past, but damn it can be slow, so I hope this update addresses some of that. I mostly use it for writing code because of the extremely intuitive editing features, advanced regex, and beautiful syntax highlighting. However it can’t handle really large files like logs and such because it tries to prase everything and consumes tons of memory. For that nothing seems to beat Notepad++ on Windows (written in C!). One thing to remember is that Arom is an Electron app and as such is essentially a browser application, which sadly could never be as fast as a native app.
