The resolution thing you are talking about might be true. In my case I found the opposite surprisingly. I will update this post in lieu with your observations and information.
Although I am yet to find a better terminal than WT at the moment. Powershell and CMD bare bones are too basic. No split terminals. No tabs. No profiles. ConEmu and Cmder are slower as per my observations. I have used both of them. Hyper is laughable. So, therefore WT has become my personal favourite. Although I completely agree that nothing is as fast as the Linux terminal. WT startup is slow. But its not WT that is slow. Its Powershell. Put CMD as your defaul profile in WT settings and voila! you have a faster leaner terminal.
I've been a professional C, Perl, PHP and Python developer.
I'm an ex-sysadmin from the late 20th century.
These days I do more Javascript and CSS and whatnot, and promote UX and accessibility.
My default profile in WT is WSL running whatever Linux I put on it, by the way.
I thought I'd update this to say that since a couple of versions ago, WT seems to have fixed most of its speed problems and is now in the same ballpark as other terminal emulators.
