Congrats on the release.

#3I really like the concept of Atom, but it always feels slow compared to VI. I think it's psychological though, because I can't point to any part of it and say "This is slow".

Wow. Significantly slower than the IDEs I used to think were bloated JVM beasts.

Now I want to see the results from neovim, or anything with a client/server architecture. I'm surprised emacs is so slow (compared to vim) and I wonder if that explains it.

This is one of the reasons preventing me to switch from Sublime.
The other reason is slowness to open a single file from the CLI, it seems Atom doesnt reuse the already open shell like sublime does, there was a tracked issue for that one.

It's super-slow, and freezes many times more than Sublime.
I like that it's more foolproof, though. Granted it's a product built for developers, it's nice to have a GUI for installing themes and plugins, and for configuring it. This aspect is what keeps me from switching to Sublime.

Im not sure what you mean, Sublime has a GUI for installing themes and plugins. And is a config file really that difficult?

I have noticed at least 2 situations:
1. Opening large text files 2. Some frequent changes in one of the files in the tree being made by a different process
