Description
I found my program is running slow after using Fira code and it works faster after using other monospace fonts like Consola and Courier New.
I guess the root cause may be that my CPU loading is almost full but it seems that Fira code consumes more CPU loading than other fonts.
Fira code is a great font so I am looking forward to the performance as good as other fonts.
