Windows build number: Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.19042.804]
Windows Terminal version (if applicable): 1.5.10411.0 & Preview 1.6.10412.0
Any other software?
git-bash (mintty 3.4.1 xterm)
Steps to reproduce
python -c "from timeit import default_timer as default_timer; thisTimer = default_timer(); list(print(i) for i in range(100000)); print('thisTimer', round(default_timer()-thisTimer,2))"
Expected behavior
Windows terminal mentions GPU accelerated text rendering so I was expecting a significant speed performance over conhost.
Actual behavior
running the above python script to print 100k lines takes 7s on conhost with no speed difference using windows terminal (powershell or cmd)
Running the same script with git-bash takes 0.7s but it seems to render the screen in segments as opposed to wt and conhost clearly showing each line bring printed.
Is there a setting or option to let windows terminal print to console faster even at the cost of readability as a common use case i have is executing a long running code with a large text dump per second but running it in conhost ends up slowing down my script

I believe we're using #3075 to track the latest iteration of "Terminal not speed enough" (previously, #1064). The Terminal is actually a bit faster than conhost, but at the end of the day, there's actually still a conhost sitting between the Terminal and whatever the client application is. So that still slows things down a bit.
Hi! We've identified this issue as a duplicate of another one that already exists on this Issue Tracker. This specific instance is being closed in favor of tracking the concern over on the referenced thread. Thanks for your report!

There's another issue on the tracker that's pretty much the same thing.
