I got pretty excited about trying this out, since I've been using a no longer maintained (and pretty buggy) app called Sequel Pro.

But, Beekeeper kind of seems slow/clunky? I ran a simple query in our prod DB that returned 906 rows x 60 columns – the app completely froze up and I couldn't even scroll down to the next few rows...

Switch to Sequel Pro nightly build. You can install it with homebrew. It’s very stable despite the nightly moniker. I haven’t had a single issue with it and it resolved several issues I was having with the regular release.

Yesterday after using Sequel Pro for years, I decided to give TablePlus a try and have been pleasantly surprised. Sequel Pro seems a bit snappier is some instances like when you run a few dozen (or thousand) queries from the editor, but TablePlus query auto complete is so much better than Sequel Pro, and I really like having to confirm changes rather than them running in real time as I update/create/delete things.

The nightlies have a lot of UI bugs, Filtering options disappear randomly, the left column is kinda weird etc.

But still with all those UI bugs I prefer it over any other client.

I have not encountered any of that. And ditto on still preferring it.

I think wide tables are a performance problem with the table lib were using (tabulator). There may be ways to improve it. Frankly I don't have a 60 wide table to test with.

Can you file an issue so I don't forget?
