I also had a rather noticeable delay when launching atuin. As it turns out, this was because it checked for an update every time it launched! You can disable that update check: add a ` update_check = false` to your `~/.config/atuin/config.toml` [1]. That made the delay pretty much disappear for me.

What? I don't expect any tool to interact with the network if it's not made specifically for this (curl, netcat, etc). This would betray my expectations, I find it unacceptable.

It's one of our key features

But it's up to you. You can disable any sync features by installing with `--no-default-features --features client` set. Your application won't have any networking features built into the binary then

We actually fixed the delay issue, but since you disabled update checking you wouldn't have known to update!

It was quite annoying so we're sorry for that

Oh, it's nice you fixed it, thanks! And don't worry, I updated atuin, as it's in my distro's repository (which is why I wasn't worried about disabling the update check).

How would you compare this to, say, McFly? https://github.com/cantino/mcfly

I noticed that before and am glad to see it fixed. My current issue is that typing to search is noticeably slow on a 150,000 entry history, especially for the first few characters. fzf is instant for me.

Yeah we accidentally had this blocking :/ It does only check once an hour though, and can totally be disabled!

We introduced this as we found a lot of people reporting bugs that had already been fixed + they just needed to update, or users on the sync server that were >1yr behind on updates (making improvements really difficult to introduce).
