there's a deep need and want in me to make things veeeery fast, wanting to flourish this kind of "think deeply about performance" mindset not only in me but other engineers and this just brings joy. Seeing SUCH a fast startup :P
0.5s seems quite slow for an empty window, profiling it might reveal the cause. When you know the cause you can take action!
In my case I'm using sokol_app.h instead of something like SDL, but I don't think it should matter much.
I also use C which might helps keep the runtime bloat away
Indeed! Years of waiting 10-20 secs for unity to go into playmode made me allergic to anything more than 500ms of delay after a change. I'll do whatever it takes to keep it down as the projects grow
