I agree. Both fall well-short of Sublime in terms of most performance benchmarks, but I find VS Code more consistently above the thresholds for good usability and generally growing a more vibrant community of developers. I feel like it's pulling away.

I found Sublime Text had a few bugs when I used it, so I've switched to Atom. I'm considering VS Code because of the speed problems with Atom, it takes a little bit too long to open, but crucially it freezes for a long time when viewing a large file which can happen accidentally when in the Git view.
