Tried native-comp? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24117853 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24117853

  I have, on macOS, and somehow, it has much much worse lag than Mitsuharu Yamamoto's Emacs "Mac port," [1] which is still based on Emacs 27.2. The native comp version was so slow that I gave up and switched back to Mitsuharu's port, which is snappy enough for my needs even without the native compilation bits. From what I gather, mainline Emacs was adversely impacted by changes in Mojave. [2][3] The end result, for me, is that any gains in the native compilation are swamped by the macOS issues. I'm hoping that Mistuharu rebases his work on the native-comp Emacs soon, so that I can get the best of both.

    Emacs 28 is much faster for me, on ubuntu, FWIW.

      Where are you getting 28? https://mirrors.ocf.berkeley.edu/gnu/emacs/ https://mirrors.ocf.berkeley.edu/gnu/emacs/ only shows up to 27.

        28 is the current master of Emacs. So you have to compile from source.

    > hoping that Mistuharu rebases his work on the native-comp Yeah, otherwise you're not comparing apples to apples ;)
