Hi, With the recent fixes of memory leaks, much progress has been made in terms of speed. I'm not talking about super fast/low CPU usage mind you, but I think we're back to the speed of last year, if not faster. So if you had given up on Yi for a while because of speed, it might be time to try again.
There remains the issue of linux+vty idle CPU consumption: when after some time, Yi consumes some cpu when idle -- I still bet this is a GHC RTS issue -- hopefully fixed with GHC 6.12. I'm talking about 25% on this machine. Strangely enough, CPU usage drops again if one types (slowly), so in practice this isn't very annoying, at least when power consumption isn't critical. I'm now working on speeding up the display of syntax-based modes in some bad cases, we'll see if that gets anywhere in the next couple of weeks.
