1. I can say I really appreciate the fact that you guys focus so much on performance.
2. I understand that sublime is closed source and respect that, but would sublime ever release or talk about how they develop their GUI? What libraries and techniques they use?
There's a fair amount of information scattered around about how parts of our GUI toolkit work, but there may be a blog post or two about that in the future. In general though it's not a particularly novel design on the toolkit end - the basics are all pretty similar to others. We just tend to put a lot of effort into making things work well and work fast.
