Use Electron for Performance Enhancement

The guys over at nightmare have begun porting to electron. The improvements electron offers over phantom seem worth the effort. Is there appetite here to do that with phantasma?

Very interesting, although I've not really had problems with Phantomjs myself - 2-3x speed improvements are always welcome. I'll watch what they are doing over on Nightmare and do some testing of my own.

In my opinion though it should be a separate library - it could be that in another year Phantomjs is 2-3x faster than electron.. and I'd rather keep supporting Phantomjs because it's quite widely used.

So I'm thinking another library for this with the same API
