You probably don't want to use Automerge. See https://josephg.com/blog/crdts-go-brrr/ for a nice CRDT optimization story.

Interesting! I know there was a large performance refactor that was merged in May [0]. This post you link was written in June of this year. Unclear if the performance fix is related to the reported issues and unsure if it still exists or not.

At the very least, the automerge maintainers seem to be very actively tackling performance problems.

Yep, the version of automerge I benchmarked for that blog post includes automerge’s performance branch changes.

They’re working on it, but it’ll be awhile before automerge gets close to Yjs in terms of performance.
