Correct. It is still embarrassing, in my opinion.

To make matters worse, it takes several minutes for Zed's window to appear on a cold start, whereas VSCode launches almost instantly.

[1] I am trying to measure it as we speak but it is taking quite a long time.

That one is interesting. It's much quicker for me, even cold starts are below 1s, and subsequent startups are basically instant.


Cold starts are minutes, subsequent startups are much faster than VSCode[1].

I wonder why though.

[1] I have not measured subsequent launches of VSCode though, but Zed is relatively pretty quick after the initial launch.


Maybe some kind of "security" software interfering?
