My small very unscientific benchmarking on a high spec last gen Macbook pro 13 (partly consisting of watching Activity monitor while scrolling fast) is that Alacritty performs better than Kitty (despite Kittys team claiming the opposite) both in terms of frames per second and in terms of CPU use. Kitty uses maybe 30% more CPU with fast scrolling despite being slower.

You have to bind a shortcut to creating a new Window which will appear as a new icon. And! a new window can take 10 seconds or so to be completely responsive. I don't think I ever experienced a terminal emulator window taking more than a second to open before on any system with any emulator.
