Java-Based and Chromium-based IDE suck a lot on large code bases.
The same IntelliJ can't compete with Eclipse on handling large scale projects.
CLion gets all the bad from IntelliJ .
On this point of view, Visual Studio 2019 has improved much more on a performance perspective and can still handle large scale projects.
So far, I prefer VS and QtCreator, which have also a free license too. I don't understand why CLion hasn't a Community Edition just like IntelliJ
- piokoch 7y agoHere I am surprised, I've started paying for IntelliJ because I couldn't open huge project in Eclipse.

- mister_hn 7y agoOn a multi-artifacts maven JavaEE project (not submodules, just a lot of independent modules), it has serious difficulties. Support for Java12+ is far better than Eclipse, but working on IntelliJ and using auto-formatting tools (Checkstyle and Save-Actions) makes it suffer enormously. I've never had those problems on Eclipse. I had to assign over 4GB RAM to handle more files (by default it is set to 2GB max)
