But when you stop caring about performance at every stage, it eventually adds up.Sending. I'm not trying to hammer JS programmers, because most them just want something to work. I mean that alone can cause giant performance problems.įinally, with a lot of plugins, you have JS programmers, most of whom don't care about performance in a systematic way. For example, with scripts you often need to write extra interfaces so you can hide loops in C++ and so forth so that you're not paying huge penalties for iterating the loop in a script and then also paying another huge penalty because the C++ compiler doesn't get a chance to optimize the code. Of course you can do tons with scripts, but you have to be extremely rigorous. I've worked with lots of systems that use scripted code on top of C++ and you always get generally poor performance if you don't pay really fucking close attention to the thickness of your script layer. I feel like there's something deeply wrong with their strategy of using such a thick JS layer. If so, this is an enormous problem to fix because it might involve touching code in a large number of systems. Personally, I think Atom's performance problems are death by a thousand paper cuts. Does Atom's poor performance arise from 'death by a thousand paper cuts", or are there relatively few problems that involve huge inefficiencies, such as poor memory management. This could depend on the nature of the problem.

Also, is there any hope on the horizon of reducing load time for Electron based apps?
