The "Java resource hog" is still a thing...in a few areas.
As an Android dev, I still see complaints (most likely by beginners) saying how Android Studio consumes much RAM and asking if it's possible to replace it with.. VSCode. I still remember doing Android development using Eclipse on a 2 GB PC and it was reasonably okay-ish. Of course it's practically impossible to use Android Studio on such machine. 8 GB is bare minimum.
:D
- eklavya 2y ago"resource hog" is a thing. Eclipse is java as well.
- anta40 2y agoWell fair point. During my university days, there were 2 prominent Java-based IDEs: Eclipse and Netbeans. Even after installing some plugins, Eclipse ran faster, and thus become my primary IDE. I kinda miss Eclipse. On the other side, seems like most Java dev nowadays already switch to IntelliJ.
