The moment I saw brackets, I fell in love with it. I really saw it as an opportunity to replace SublimeText, so I went with it. I tried the Sprint 35 version on Ubuntu 12.04 x64, and my PCs performances are well over the minimum requirements.

Unfortunately it turned out to be very slow, I opened an existing project I am working on, where my JS files were not larger than 500 lines / file. The cursor is lagging, literally, when I press the "down arrow" for instance, the cursor disappears, then I stop pressing it and it reappears somewhere below. Scrolling had the same effect, just as well as changing the currently opened document, it all takes time, the amount of when you feel that something is not right. At first I had a couple of extensions installed, so I threw them all out, but it didn't change a thing.

I would really like to use brackets, it's concept/idea really works for me, but until it gets faster I simply can't . Looking forward to the next sprint, I hope things will change.



Can you file a bug? https://github.com/adobe/brackets/issues/new

That level of performance degradation is definitely not normal.
