Zed is a modern open-source code editor, built from the ground up in Rust with a GPU-accelerated renderer.
Surprisingly slow compared to GPU rendering. But… is it really “surprisingly slow”? If it was some 10mhz machine, then sure… I’d agree with you.
Look at the benchmarks on kitty https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/performance/
Maybe I’m missing something, but shouldn’t the benchmark be a good approximation to the real workload? I don’t see how the measurements reflect the performance difference in real life usages.
Why would I need 100MiB/s processing as opposed to 20MiB/s processing, when I can only read maybe several lines per second?
Faster processing means more efficient processing which means less power draw.

How about keypress latency? Over 3x faster than gnome terminal and 4x faster than alacritty
