    > warp lets you securely share your terminal with one simple command: warp open. When connected to your warp, clients can see your terminal exactly as if they were sitting next to you. You can also grant them write access, the equivalent of handing them your keyboard.

    > warp distinguishes itself from "tmux/screen over ssh" by its focus and ease of use as it does not require an SSH access to your machine or a shared server for others to collaborate with you.

    > Despite being still quite experimental, warp has already proven itself useful especially in the context of:

    > - Interaction with remote team-members

    > - New engineer onboarding (navigating code in group without projection)

    Hey - that's a good point. The thing about terminal benchmarks is that there are many of them, each focusing on a different aspect and producing different results. There's one by alacritty team[1] that we used in our initial tests[2], there's another ones mentioned in the comments above etc. When using vtbench, Warp performed much better than iterm, for example.

    Ideally we'd ace all of them, but we're not there yet. Anecdotally, many of our users mention speed/performance improvements over other terminal apps a lot in our Discord!

    The diagram below shows the output of vtebench for scrolling in various terminals. For some reason Hyper generally could not handle running the benchmarks at all and did not terminate after a reasonable amount of time.

    It's not easy to measure the performance of terminal apps. But I definitely notice a difference compared to let's say iTerm2, especially when scrolling through large files in Vim. Alacritty claims that it's faster than the competition using vtebench as a benchmarking tool. Kitty claims that the CPU usage is slightly increased compared to xterm (6-8% compared to 5-7%), but that scrolling is smoother.
