No idea why you're getting downvotes. I think this actually is a problem in the dev world. They often have overpowered systems compared to the average user and as a result might not realize or simply don't care how their software performs on lower end systems.
One example that's driving me mad is shotwell (photo managing software). For some reason whenever you start it, it is crawling your entire collection of photos again. There are countless rejected tickets from people asking to add an option to disable it. I personally manage my photos on an older laptop with a spinning 2tb drive, for when I travel... So I'm somewhere without a power outlet in reach, battery sitting at 12%, and would like to quickly show some photos to a friend, but opening up shotwell will make sure that remaining battery will be drained in an instant. But the neckbeards developing that software sitting in their basements with 4 SSDs running in raid 0 just fail to understand what my problem is. Sadly I haven't found a good replacement so far, feature wise.
Edit: Also forgetting your password sucks ;-)
