I don't mean to hate on any particular groups of people, I'm simply a proponent of using the right tools for the job. I can only speak from my own experience, but I have never dealt with an Electron app that wasn't noticeably slower than other apps, to the point of standing out like a sore thumb. Or, put another way, when I notice an app performing especially slowly, I think to myself, "that's probably an Electron app", and I'm usually right.
