But also as a big fan of new things, i decided to try Atom for curiosity purposes.\r\n\r\nIt turns out that i found Atom a great platform for day-by-day development, and im using it Atom now. But theres one thing annoying me:\r\n\r\nI usually open Atom using the Shell command \"atom [filename]\", and compared to \"mate [filename]\" (the same command Textmate use for open files using Shell), Atom is incredible slow (i feel i have to wait twice of the time, like 1s~2s).\r\nI know this performance also is related to machine specs, processors, memory and etc. But its the exactly same task executed for different tools. \r\n\r\nI can record a video showing that behavior if you like.\r\nAlso, if this is a un-prioritize known issue, i can submit a pull request if theres noone working on it. I just need to know where to start looking.\r\n\r\n][`s"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/atom/atom/issues/comments/202225568","html_url":"https://github.com/atom/atom/issues/2654#issuecomment-202225568","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/atom/atom/issues/2654","id":202225568,"user":{"login":"mark-hahn","id":811455,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/811455?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/mark-hahn","html_url":"https://github.com/mark-hahn","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mark-hahn/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mark-hahn/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mark-hahn/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mark-hahn/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mark-hahn/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mark-hahn/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mark-hahn/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mark-hahn/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mark-hahn/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-03-28T04:25:35Z","updated_at":"2016-03-28T04:25:35Z","body":">  this is still an open issue almost two years after it's been reported.\n\nThis isn't a bug to fix.  It is a performance improvement issue which will\nget better and better but never go away.  Mine always opens in my laptop in\nless than two seconds with about 40 packages but it will be better when it\nopens in one second.  Two years ago Atom took six or more seconds for me to\nopen.  But even then it was worth it.\n\nOn Sun, Mar 27, 2016 at 8:59 PM, Andrew Powell <notifications@github.com>\nwrote:\n\n> Mind bottling (yes, bottling <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0DFBoLZC3Bw>)\n> that this is still an open issue almost two years after it's been reported.\n> Was googling for how to speed it up after it took nearly 10 seconds to open\n> on my 2013 MBP tonight.\n>\n> —\n> You are receiving this because you were mentioned.\n> Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub\n> <https://github.com/atom/atom/issues/2654#issuecomment-202221893>\n>\n"}}
