TFA actually says the developer couldn't figure out how to do this with native APIs, not that they're slower: "But I still cannot make a simple thing work properly: a chat with Markdown & the ability to select a whole message."

Electron ultimiately sits on native APIs, and has its own performance costs on top of them.
