Performance of Obsidian and Logseq in operations
ref: goedel
This article compare the performance of Obsidian and Logseq. Obsidian ranked first in almost every category.
Importing
Times for importing files aren’t critical because you won't do this daily. Obsidian was first when importing the files, particularly impressive, even 10,000 files Obsidian imported faster than any other application 2,000.
Load Application
Application start times are essential, especially if you want to quickly note something but don’t have the app open.
Obsidian was on the faster side.
Opening Pages
Long waiting times when opening pages with many backlinks are annoying and disturb your working flow.
Opening Backlinks
When opening the backlinks or references area, all programs load a short preview of the page.
Paste Content
Pasting formatted content is something I use very often when exploring new topics.
Export
Exporting is not the most critical category. And to be fair, Obsidian got the best result here because they use local storage with markdown files and don’t offer an export function.
