Of course electron is fast, it builds on years of work making v8 fast.

My main issue is battery life. I just need to open one electron app (Discord, Slack, Spotify even though that's CEF, but close enough) to have powertop drop from 10 hours expected battery life to 3-4.

That means it isn't fast. Your CPU is fast and electron is making it consume an insane amount of resources to do trivial things. If it were truly fast, it would not affect your battery life.

Hey, have you used Powertop's --auto-tune flag? Is there any way you know of to selectively enable flags. I don't like that my disks spin up and park too frequently because I have some spinning disks too.

I'm sorry, what's CEF? I haven't come across that acronym before.
