IntelliJ tools always felt like molasses to me. Maybe has something to do with them being done in Java. Most of my dev tools are native and the feeling is total

  Well, my two primary tools are Xcode and Eclipse. Xcode is native but Eclipse is much, much faster. I doubt appliction performance has much to do with the language they're written in.

    Not the language but what it compiles to and of course some sorcery that few people possess. Anyways I had actually used Eclipse and did not find it particularly responsive. Been a while so maybe it is faster now.

  yeah they have a bunch of open bugs about performance making it unusable, they are even rewriting their rendering to use Metal underneath
