Another commenter mentioned how VSCode's performance shows that Electron isn't terrible [1]. Based on the discussion, we're going to look a lot deeper into finding ways to reduce Electron's memory bloat especially when idle, and reduce CPU usage when screen sharing by attempting to offload the most computationally intensive parts to purely native code, while still leveraging Electron as a unified, cross-platform presentation layer. We'll report on our progress on this front, and our goal will be to get the best of both worlds: one cross-platform code-base, coupled with native levels of performance.
