Hello, I use sublime on my desktop and my macbook. I was curious to see the differences between the build times, the “Finished in ms” thing. I used this code on both devices " line 1 - message = “test” line 2 - print(message)". On my desktop I get 250-300ms and on my macbook I get 35-50ms. Why is this? My desktop has a i5-9600K 3.7ghz 16gb ram and a GTX1660ti while my macbook has a 1.4ghz i5 with 8gb ram. Any thoughts?

I do use Windows 10 on my desktop. Is this common among Windows OS regardless of hardware?

In my experience, yes. It takes Windows longer to spin up a new child process than Linux and MacOS do, all else being equal. So for short lived tasks the setup required in the OS Kernel to get the task running can skew the time results.
That sort of thing usually fades into the noise in the sort of situation where you fire up a program and then run it for a period of time; it’s only really noticeable in cases where you’re constantly starting and stopping a process.
