Creator of Ghostty here. Always a fan of new terminals. I noticed your benchmarks are against Ghostty 1.3.1, which is fair, since its the latest released, but our IO throughputs in particularly the areas you tested have improved by more than double on some machines, so if you get a chance, I would ask you rebenchmark on `main`.
I don't know if it'd be faster than your terminal or not, but it'd be significantly faster than 1.3.1. On my M4 MacBook Pro, ASCII processing improved by about 2.8x, if that holds in your benchmarks, it would be faster than shitty. But, who knows. I'd prefer you ran it yourself.
- sejje 2mo agoWhat are your go-to checks for quality terminals, when you are scoping out something new?
- pg83 2mo agoI'll definitely do it as soon as the release happens!
- pg83 2mo agoI'd try the master, but I have no experience with the zig ecosystem. I'd end up compiling something wrong and getting weird results. I'd rather wait for the official binaries!
- lr1970 2mo agoGhostty provides official nightly builds from the main branch [0]. You do not need to build it yourself. [0] https://github.com/ghostty-org/ghostty/releases https://github.com/ghostty-org/ghostty/releases
- pg83 1mo agoWe're currently tied in wall (yours is better at ASCII, while random is worse). But considering that user is better for me in both cases (algorithmic), we'll still have a chance to compete. :)) I've updated the tables.
