Just click on the link and you can easily see it only redraws when something on the screen changes. It's amazing how quickly people will dismiss something these days based on their own made up reasons.

The poster above me explained to me that it's not like that?

Click the link, open the backend tab, and look where it says "Only running UI code when there are animations or input."

Then you won't have to waste cycles deciding which random internet comment from a stranger to believe

If you set up "winit" so it only redraws on events, then you don't trigger an EGUI redraw very often. But if updates that affect the EGUI items are coming in from another source, like the network, you have to explicitly trigger a winit redraw cycle.

Don't know about web. Seems overkill if all you have are GUI widgets. Egui is most useful on top of something more graphical.

Scrolling text is a problem. EGUI isn't good at big text boxes with much offscreen text. That can be worked around.
