Atom's installer is a huge download, and the editor is much slower ... It also consumes much more memory and written in coffeescript. Takes a long time to start up ... just a few things on the top of my head.
It's a great initiative though so that's already a good point.
On this MacBook Pro (MacBookPro12,1) i7(3,1GHz) 16GB of RAM, 512GB SSD ... it takes less that 5 seconds which is way to long for me. If that's ok for you no worries, but you can't say it isn't slow.
