Hey Brett, are other users experiencing lag opening and closing nvALT? It takes about six seconds for it to close, and it sometimes takes about 2-3 seconds to open. I have ~1,200 plain text files in the directory nvALT is pointed to, but performance has never been an issue before these last few bugfix releases.
Thanks!
This isn't unusual, especially if you're using Simplenote sync. The delay before closing is nvALT ensuring that all sync operations are complete. That being said, no, I haven't noticed or heard from any users seeing changes in launch/quit time, so you might file a report at https://github.com/ttscoff/... to see if anyone else chimes in.
