You are right. I run IntelliJ on top end MBP though it is mostly reasonable it never forgets to remind me that it is written in Java. In my past I have used far less capable machines and the less said about Java IDEs the better. I admit that very few developers complained about their Java based IDEs / GUIs where ever I worked. I guess It must be due to very low expectation from their tools.
