Having never thought my current terminal emulator was slow I was surprised to immediately see a difference with Alacritty!

That being said, every time I install a package useing apt-get (Xubuntu) Alacritty crashes with the following: thread 'pty reader' panicked at 'index out of bounds: the len is 24 but the index is 18446744073709551615', /buildslave/rust-buildbot/slave/nightly-dist-rustc-linux/build/src/libcollections/vec.rs:1371

I guess we're not quite at 1.0 yet but looking good otherwise!
