Uhm… we will look into it.
Thanks, @WhiteNoise!
However, think how much lantency you have when you actually use latex? (you have to compile everytime) or when you use Overleaf?
There’s more to unpack here. Firstly, Obsidian is a markdown editor, so let’s stick to its peers like Typora and VSCode for comparison. Secondly, I’m talking about typing latency (time from keystroke to the letter appearing), which is virtually nonexistent even in the LaTeX tools you mentioned.
Talking about VSCode (or any other markdown editor, for that matter), I think they traded typing latency for rendering latency; the preview doesn’t update in real time, there’s a miniature lag. I think that’s a good tradeoff — typing latency doesn’t have any place in a text editor.
I tried your document and it’s doing pretty well. What computer do you have?
Maybe it’s a Mac-specific issue? Or we have different standards? I doubt my gear is an issue (16GM RAM, i7 2.2GhZ) — and if it is, it certainly shouldn’t.
And @Alex2357, glad (and not glad) I’m not the only one having this issue! I’m of the opinion that a text editor should run on anything that is operable by a mouse — unfortunately I have to do the same workaround as you. Personally I’d prefer to have a small rendering latency rather than wait for every keystroke to appear.
