what would you count as low latency terminal?
1 comments

See https://beuke.org/terminal-latency/. Single-digit milliseconds I’d say. These numbers are minus the keyboard and display latency.
Some of those include display latency (e.g. Konsole) because you can't throw lazy rendering out of some terminals.
Has anyone run this test on Ghostty?
I get a "Cannot detect the reference pattern" error when I try with Ghostty with Typometer.
thanks!
