According to this (at least 11 months old) benchmark, Ghostty has the worst input latency across all contenders: https://github.com/ghostty-org/ghostty/discussions/4837

I'm generally very sensitive to input latency and there's no way Ghostty has 41ms. I've only been using it for a couple of months though, so I guess it's fixed now.
Edit: just saw your second link from 4 months and yes, it's now avg 13ms which feels about right to me. Not perfect but acceptable. So what's even the point of sharing the old benchmark?
I don’t type more than 100 characters a second so I’ve never ran into bits limits.
If you're typing just one character per second you'll still feel the difference. Latency is stress inducing.
