Severe performance issues on Linux

• Hyper.app version: 2.0.0

Issue

Screen redrawing is painfully slow on Hyper 2 on Linux, I believe this is due to Electron 1.8 electron/electron#11051

FYI Electron 2 is coming up and I still have issues on my Linux box but you can workaround it via the --ignore-gpu-blacklist Chromium arg. You may want to allow this (and --disable-gpu) to pass the CLI to /opt/Hyper/hyper. See electron/electron#12042

Looks like it's an issue on your end too. There's some weirdness on Linux where spawning takes a while sometimes, don't know too much about that problem.

The setCwd/setGit might be from Plugin hyper-statusline (1.7.4) loaded.?

After disabling hyperline, everything is fine when I launch with: /opt/Hyper/hyper --ignore-gpu-blacklist

You should fix this:

~/dev/Microsoft/vscode @tyriar/terminal_process_refactor │ ?1±1 ❯ hyper --ignore-gpu-blacklist
The option "ignore-gpu-blacklist" is unknown. Here's a list of all available options:

Thank you for your feedback @Tyriar

We'll track our work about passing options to hyper/electron over here: #2839
