The last time I tried st the input latency was quite a bit more than xterm. Noticeable enough to feel the difference when opening them side by side and typing normally. xterm is really as good as it gets if you want a buttery smooth typing experience.
- mrob 6y agoKitty can match xterm's latency while having better throughput. The only drawback is the forced anti-aliasing, but that's easily patched out (in freetype.c, change the last line of get_load_flags() to "return base | FT_LOAD_MONOCHROME | FT_LOAD_TARGET_MONO;")
