I'm on snapshot 36. I'd grab from the git repo but (correct me if I'm wrong) I don't see anything that would give a speed boost in the latest commits.
I tried the ATSUI renderer, but it didn't play nicely with my font (Pragmata TT 9pt, and I set that character width default to 1.1, not sure if that affects ATSUI though). I tried ATSUI again just now (ugliness disregarded) and it feels a bit faster, but still not 1:1 to editing a blank file. My "benchmark" here is simply holding down the enter key and seeing how fast the line numbers go by. In insert mode in a new file, it's noticeably faster than normal mode in Main.php. I noticed that when editing Main.php and bigger chunks/more expensive- to-highlight parts of the code came up, it slowed down slightly more.
