By skyforbes When I do some stress testing on both, alacritty differs from konsole by extremely marginally, like 5%. The difference is Alacritty eats like 2x the amount of cpu usage as konsole and a minor amount of gpu (like 2%, but konsole is technically 0%).
I tried a whole bunch of stress tests like yes'ing chinese liguatures, catting massive binary files, and other stress tests like that.
How exactly is Alacritty better than konsole? I hear so many people rave about how performant it is, but from my tests it seems to be very much not so. Is there some form of settings i have to switch or something?
EDIT: I am using Konsole right now, and don't see any reason not to, but I always hear so many alacritty/kitty glazers, and they look down on you just for using Konsole, while boasting better speeds. Which is not the case in reality. Just look at the dislike count to see how many people got pissed off that i even mentioned that Alacritty could ever be worse than Konsole..
