What I got wrong about fast terminals

Quality: 8/10 Relevance: 9/10

Summary

The author revises a previous post on fast terminals, correcting benchmarking methods for Zsh startup performance. It emphasizes measuring user-perceived latency (time to first prompt, command lag) with tools like zsh-bench and instant prompt, versus naive time loops. It also clarifies which plugin managers add overhead and suggests a simple, maintainable setup.
