Performance is a typical concern with this approach, but we have seen the trend of these applications becoming more performant over time as issues are worked out.

That's just the processors becoming faster.

I think it's more the case that these programs do better to optimize over time. Atom had major performance issues when it was first released, and that was greatly improved on. Slack's latest release also radically improved on performance. The last Chrome version also reduced RAM use by 30%. I think it's hard to optimize early with these reasonably inefficient technologies, but performance bottlenecks can be fixed over time.
