svelte kinda stopped marketing performance as a feature because "react is fast enough" but... it just isn't. so many of these stories. maybe the compiler will fix it. anyway the real money quote is "Features that took days in React could be built in hours with Svelte". many such cases!
passage from the quoted post:

---

Why React Wasn't Working for Our Graphic Editor

React is excellent for many applications, but it presented specific challenges for our graphic editor:

1. Performance with complex visuals: When users edit designs with hundreds of SVG elements, React's approach to comparing the entire component tree became noticeably slow, especially during real-time editing.

2. Too many unnecessary updates: A particularly painful example was text editing. When a user changed a single character in a text box, React would re-render not just that text element but often dozens of unrelated components. Despite our team spending weeks implementing memoization and careful prop management, we couldn't eliminate the stuttering.

3. Delayed visual feedback: React's batched state updates sometimes created noticeable delays in visual feedback, which is particularly problematic in a design tool where users expect immediate, pixel-perfect control.

The new `base-select` it's dope...however it is a bit problematic for svelte (and probably Solid too) because it changes the HTML parser behaviour that svelte uses to get a reference to the elements you define. So if you write <option><div></div></option> svelte will throw a compiler error. 1/2
