What is your use case that you see UI lag between vscode and sublime? Honestly, I feel zero difference between sublime/vscode/vi. Vscode arguably takes longer to boot up, but that only happens like once a day so it's not a big deal.

I think this is a lot of "I don't like Typescript/Javascript for serious things" or "Electron sucks" posturing rather than an actual tangible difference.

Study the graphs. Ready the copy.

If you don't feel these differences every keystroke, count yourself lucky to have slower perception or typing, rather than accusing folks of posturing.
