What?? I don't have access to a Windows install right now, but the last time I used ST3 on Windows, it took a heck of a lot longer (~2-3 seconds) to start up than Notepad2.
For micro-edit sessions, Notepad2 is unbeatable.
- jhasse 13y agoJust tested: less than half a second (it basically came up instantly). I have a SSD though.
- MatmaRex 13y agoIt takes a few seconds to start up for me too. And if it's already running, unrelated tabs appearing are annoying. I use Sublime usually, but Notepad2 when I just want to edit something quickly or have a scratch pad. (I actually replaced Windows' notepad with it.)
- InTheSwiss 13y agoUsing ST3b3059 on Windows 8.1 pro x64, 2.5Ghz Core 2 Duo, 4GB RAM, 7200RPM Platter and the ST console logs "startup time: 0.0931221", it loaded as fast as vanilla Notepad.
- Numberwang 13y agoST2 takes 8 seconds for me to start on my laptop. Notepad++ starts in 0.5.
- Already__Taken 13y agoYes that's why this discussion is about ST3.
- Numberwang 13y agoUpgraded. Same issue.
- deevus 13y agoThere was a massive performance boost for startup for ST3. ST2 startup is slow. That might explain the difference in opinion perhaps.
