Every alternative to React roughly fall into one of 3 categories: 1. Go back to reactive templates. 2. Sprinkle directives over plain HTML a-la early Angular 1. 3. HTML over the wire. All those ideas pre-date React and React won against the

It’s a classic latency-throughout trade off: smaller latency - lower throughout. Doing certain operations in bulk (like GC) increases latency, but is also more efficient and increases throughput.

IMO if you really care about certain process being responsive, you should allocate dedicated CPU cores and a contiguous region of memory to it, that shouldn’t be touched by the rest of OS. Oh, and also give a it direct access to a separate
