Comment on Atom: Hello Windows

Comments

Is there a way to speed up boot time? It takes a bit less than 4 seconds on i7 to load up text file, which is way too long for a text editor.

Notepad++ takes ~10 seconds to load on my Windows 7 dev machine...

Loads under 400ms on mine. Not sure why Atom takes so long.

Looks like it is profiling it's own startup:

   Packages->timecop->show

Doesn't show useful info. Window load time is 1809ms, workspace load time 94ms, everything else is under 20ms. I hate being nitpicker, but thats a lot of time to load window.

Not yet, they promised to work on performance after proper Windows support though.
