### Is it really fast?

Yes.

Benchmark results obtained with
|
|
|
|
|
[zsh-prompt-benchmark](https://github.com/romkatv/zsh-prompt-benchmark) on an Intel i9-7900X
|
|
|
|
|
running Ubuntu 18.04 with the config from the demo.

|
| powerlevel9k/master | 1046 ms |
|
|
|
|
|
| powerlevel9k/next | 1005 ms |
|
|
|
|
|
| **powerlevel10k** | **8.7 ms** |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Powerlevel10k is over 100 times faster than Powerlevel9k in this benchmark.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In fairness, Powerlevel9k has acceptable latency when given a spartan configuration. If all you need
|
|
|
|
|
is the current directory without truncation or shortening, Powerlevel9k can render it for you in
|
|
|
|
|
17 ms. Powerlevel10k can do the same 30 times faster but it won't matter in practice because 17 ms
|
|
|
|
|
is fast enough (the threshold where latency becomes noticeable is around 50 ms). You have to be
|
|
|
|
|
careful with Powerlevel9k configuration as it's all too easy to make prompt frustratingly slow.
|
|
|
|
|
Powerlevel10k, on the other hand, doesn't require trading latency for utility -- it's virtually
|
|
|
|
|
instant with any configuration. It stays well below the 50 ms mark, leaving most of the latency
|
|
|
|
|
budget for other plugins you might install.
|
|
|
|
|
Yes. See [zsh-bench](https://github.com/romkatv/zsh-bench) or a direct comparison with
|
