10GB file. Casey's refterm prints it in 41 seconds, Windows Terminal takes over 6 hours, and still counting.

@krixano Thanks for the link.
I guess I should've probably checked the "LICENSE" file before going off about proprietary code. Still, happy with anything that gives an advantage to players that aren't multi-billion dollar corporations. · 2 years ago
@lykso Windows Terminal isn't actually proprietary, but I do understand your point. Casey released his code as GPL because he wanted to support competitors that weren't big companies with lots of funding, basically. You can see this here: https://github.com/cmuratori/refterm/issues/17 · 2 years ago
However due to licensing issue, no one in the team is allowed to see the code (GPL-licensed).
This is the strongest argument I've seen for using the GPL. Proprietary code *should* be worse. · 2 years ago
