I think this makes a big difference. I also have 16GB RAM and a fast SSD, but I'm on a 2-core MacBook processor. I find that with all of the various different projects I have to interact with in a day (I'm the tech lead at my company) I can't leave an IntelliJ-based IDE open without it slowing the rest of computer down to the point that it's impacting my productivity.
