I have a couple of test Rails applications that I deployed on Heroku and AWS using Elastic Beanstalk.

However, I want to learn more, and go deeper into the world of sysadmin/devops, and learn how to deploy Rails apps directly to EC2, and set up all the configuration myself, instead of Elastic Beanstalk abstracting it away from me.

I used it pretty much in the same manner as I did Sublime Text prior to testing Atom (Rails + Angular dev), enabled Vim mode, installed similar plugins, etc.

After a month, it pretty much boils down to one difference in my experience: Speed. Atom is significantly slower in everything, opening files, projects, to using plugins.

To get to the point, I've been checking if Sublime was updated recently, and to my amazement, it was! The question is why do you think it gets updates so infrequently (and far apart)?

I'm a developer at the New York Public Library and we're currently evaluating ways to create derivatives (i.e. thumbnails) from a library of 2 million master images.
