As someone with decades of software engineering under my belt, my opinion is they are the best IDEs out there by a comfortable margin. It's possible the issue you're encountering when accidentally opening them is due to index updates which would occur disproportionately often on startup for people who otherwise never use them. Other than that, performance is more than satisfactory 90+% of the time in my experience.
- the__alchemist 1y agoYou can have both, no? best IDEs by a comfortable margin, and also lament the fans screaming and waits... That's my experience with Jetbrains!
- not_kurt_godel 1y agoThat's what I would have said about Eclipse about 15 years ago. I rarely have performance issues with Jetbrains IDEs, and even rarer still that they bog down the whole machine. Get a properly specced computer (32+GB RAM, 10+ core chip) if you don't already have one. Also try adjusting memory settings - https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/increasing-memory-heap.html https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/increasing-memory-heap.h...
