The Windows version is complete unusable for me because of how slow magit is on Windows (though that's not the fault of magit or emacs).
I haven't yet tried WSL (I run Windows on a work issued laptop), so my emacs sessions run in a Linux VM to get acceptable performance.
- rhabarba 7y agoGnus is unusably slow for me. I wonder if that is related to Windows as well...
- krylon 7y ago> how slow magit is on Windows I am relieved, though, that it's not just me.
- favadi 7y agoFrom my experience, Anything that launches subprocesses is slow on Windows.
- nightchalk16 7y agoYou can give WSL2 a try. It has speed improvements.
- goatinaboat 7y agoI use Emacs in Debian on WSL with X410 and it’s fine, no perceptible lag. Git is definitely slower in Windows
- kjar 7y agoHehe insane, you get better performance in a virtualized environment! I understand why that could be but virtualization overhead exceeding native performance is bonkers.
