Text editing performance in Photoshop

Photoshop is obviously an amazing program, but editing text in Photoshop is so slow that I instinctively create text in other programs then import into Photoshop rather than wrestle with how slow it is in Photoshop.  Recently I spent a little time with Affinity Photo and it's really startling that text editing in Affinity Photo has no lag at all.  The font list opens instantly and I could scroll through fonts with the type faces updating instantly.  Adobe needs to focus on the performance of quite of few of their programs.  The features are great but performance is a never ending complaint.
