Another POV here, I moved from Visual Studio after using it for over 15 years. For me, Atom is fucking fast. Lack of UML diagramming, database designer and TFS integration is a blessing in disguise.
- voltagex_ 11y agoI have a Lenovo X1 Carbon - no slouch by any measure, but Atom is noticibly slower to open documents and start up than Visual Studio 2015.
- Hominem 11y agoI'm was still on 2013 and my install is almost 2 years old. VS seems to get slower over time. And this is without powertools or resharper. Maybe it is just me but Atom sure feels quicker.
- aikah 11y ago> Atom is fucking fast Speed is relative. Faster than what editor ?
- jolux 11y agoVisual Studio?
- statictype 11y agoI use both. Visual Studio in a virtual machine via Parallels and Atom as a native OSX app. I find that VS is still faster.
- jolux 11y agoI was referring to the person asking what Atom was fast relative to.
- freshyill 11y agoI love Atom. I've been using it since the day it was announced. But I don't use it for the speed. It still chokes on huge files. When I need to open something big, I reach for Sublime, and it handles it with ease.
- ngrilly 11y agoWhy do you prefer Atom over Sublime Text (except when you need to open a big file)?
