Lenovo ThinkPad T440 running Windows 7 (not by choice, standard issue for my work). I just launched it and timed it at 28 seconds. Then I closed it and launched it again and it took 3 seconds, so I assume there's some sort of caching going on. But basically Atom is too slow and bloated for what I need it for, which is just editing text files, CSV files, XML files etc. Sometimes I really need the multi-line cursors for a CSV though, and I'll use ST2 for that, as it seems a little snappier than Atom, although it also takes a little while to start up. When I write code, I use Eclipse if it's Java (for work) or emacs for everything else (personal projects). I think I'm just going to install emacs on my work machine and start using it for all my text editing needs though.
