I am a software engineer currently working @ShopPad, previously @HPE. I like to build websites and web application in PHP, JavaScript, and Golang. I have an unhealthy obsession with Mexican food (🌯)
I used to use Atom as my primary editor. However, I have experience that if you use many packages the editor can get very very slow. Also, editing huge files can take forever processing. For instance there is a file that have over 10k lines of code and I click return and it takes 5 - 10 seconds before the editor response.
For these reason, I have it installed as vanilla and use it for quick/simple editing.
Aye, that can indeed be a pain. That said, I haven't had much need to open large files, and in my experience it's not slow with those unless it's doing syntax highlighting on them.

Yes, that can be very frustrating. Sometimes I'll accidentally click on a huge file from the drawer and the whole editor just freezes.
