We have radically different memories then. Bloodshed dev-c++ was always the lightest and snappiest C++ IDE around.

I think the 10 years is the key here. 15+ years ago the DevC++ was a gem, lightweight, fast usable IDE. But 10 years ago there was the free VSExpress out (not even the first, 2005 and 2008) which was far superior to DevC++ imho. (edit: on Windows)
