I don't see the point of that, but I switched to Kitty from Terminal.app and it feel much snappier all around. Even faster than iTerm2 (which I liked, but not enough to ditch Terminal.app).

You would love Xterm then, still has the least latency of any terminal. (/s only half joking )

Kitty supports full 24-bit color and ligatures while being fast as hell and not weighing down your CPU like iterm will. Plus it supports plugins and is wonderfully customize able (visually, fonts, key binds for everything). I switched after couple years ago after realizing the Mac terminal looked like shit and iterm2 was a dog and never looked back. Have not noticed any bugs during daily use. It is my only Mac and Linux terminal.
