I also had a rather noticeable delay when launching atuin. As it turns out, this was because it checked for an update every time it launched! You can disable that update check: add a ` update_check = false` to your `~/.config/atuin/config.toml` [1]. That made the delay pretty much disappear for me.

What? I don't expect any tool to interact with the network if it's not made specifically for this (curl, netcat, etc). This would betray my expectations, I find it unacceptable.

  It's one of our key features > backup and sync encrypted shell history But it's up to you. You can disable any sync features by installing with `--no-default-features --features client` set. Your application won't have any networking features built into the binary then

We actually fixed the delay issue, but since you disabled update checking you wouldn't have known to update! It was quite annoying so we're sorry for that

  How would you compare this to, say, McFly? https://github.com/cantino/mcfly https://github.com/cantino/mcfly

    Not too different. * We use heuristic based searches whereas mcfly trains a neural network * We offer a sync functionality to share history on multiple machines mcfly is a great project, although they are looking for new maintainers apparently!

    Intrigued by local-directory-first feature of McFly (It brings up commands you previously executed in that folder first). I tried it for a bit. But there was noticeable lag compared to FZF and also the UI was a bit shaky. Went back to FZF (in Zsh). I have a seven year zsh history. That may be a contributing factor for the issues ?

  Oh, it's nice you fixed it, thanks! And don't worry, I updated atuin, as it's in my distro's repository (which is why I wasn't worried about disabling the update check).

  I noticed that before and am glad to see it fixed. My current issue is that typing to search is noticeably slow on a 150,000 entry history, especially for the first few characters. fzf is instant for me.

Yeah we accidentally had this blocking :/ It does only check once an hour though, and can totally be disabled! We introduced this as we found a lot of people reporting bugs that had already been fixed + they just needed to update, or users on the sync server that were >1yr behind on updates (making improvements really difficult to introduce).
