I repeat: there was never any basis in fact for the idea that VDOM was "fast", still isn't. It's trading space for *convenience*, not speed.https://twitter.com/slightlylate/status/901577573221548032 …
Like, I built the marko-vdom lib from source and set a breakpoint in the `actualize` method. Never called. Lawlz.

Alex, I
you advocating for web perf, but the condescending attitude is a put-off.
And, actualize isn't called on purpose. Let me explain. -
VDOM, as you point out, is about convenience. Although it's not actually VDOM that's convenient, but rather diffing/patching.
