I think the "Atom is slow" meme needs to die.

Obviously, if you are loading 100s of random extensions made by fledgling JS programmers you are gonna have a bad time. Obviously if you load a 2gb text file and try to syntax highlight it, you're gonna have a bad time.

The core editor is fast, looks great, and is stupid extensible. Yeah, it's not vim fast, and yeah it won't fly on your dads old compaq, but it's fast enough not to care at this point.
