If you want IntelliJ on windows to be fast:
* change the default launcher to use the idea64.exe instead of idea.exe
* increase the default vm allocation in bin/idea64.vmoptions
-Xms668m
-Xmx1692m
-XX:MaxPermSize=412m
-XX:ReservedCodeCacheSize=246m
* disable the "SuperFetch" service of windows 8 and reboot
- purplezky 12y agobut of course if you really want faster compiles, just run linux and install your workspace in an ext4 filesystem on an ssd.
- brianwawok 12y agoI would actually set Xms == Xmx, as you can easily fill up your entire heap... why let the JVM manage total heap size in a tool when you can predict the heap size? (For the record I use ~2g Xms and Xmx for Java projects, and ~3g Xms and Xmx for Scala projects). Also you can ditch MaxPermSize if using Java8, which you should.
