Intellij is awesome, and I use it for Scala with Emacs keybindings as well but like you said, the performance is just atrocious. Memory leaks, stutters, hangs, bad latency, you name it. Every Scala dev team I've been on constantly curses at Intellij. And yet, no one switches, because the functionality it provides is so good.

I never could get ensime to work, but I should try metals.

Ensime is not maintained anymore, I'd say the experience has been better with Metals for at least 2 or 3 versions now than it every was with Ensime.

Give Metals a try! Following the instructions in the docs is enough to get a good working environment.

Most of this is the Scala plugin. I eventually stopped writing Scala because of this and other reasons.

That’s weird; I’ve been using it with Scala for the past year without any major issues.

This is very language dependent. With Kotlin and especially Java it flies for me.
