While this looks interesting, the main premise that oh-my-zsh is slow doesn't seem to hold up for me. I have a decently quick system, but nothing extreme and I don't notice much more lag with auto completion than I did with bash or fish. And I use auto completion excessively, and I'm not sparse with my oh-my-zsh plugins:

        plugins=(git golang archlinux catimg common-aliases compleat dircycle dirhistory sudo systemd urltools)
and also use other (non oh-my-zsh)"plugins" on top of that. Startup also isn't an issue and isn't any slower than it was before, and I'm using terminator which isn't exactly "light" by itself.

That being said, it looks interesting and I plan on fiddling around with it a bit.

yea oh-my-zsh isn't that slow, most people who think it is slow either have it misconfigured or have a really, really slow system
