Emacs doesn't skip a beat on text input -- unlike say VSCode which has perceivable input lag. In my experience, when Emacs gets slow it's a configuration problem, like flychecking on every keystroke, or a slow/poorly written third-party package. Raw emacs is blazing fast. Disclaimer: I use `emacs -nw` -- no GUI toolkits.
