> Most JetBrains products are super slow, and resource hogs

Yeah, every time i've tried CLion or Rider, the heap reaches its maximum size (4-8gb) like 10-20 minutes after starting the editor and then it becomes extremely slow and sluggish. My cpu goes crazy any time i start an analysis or any sort of task. I've tried to disable on the fly analysis, plugins and whatever i could find that i don't always need to be enabled, but it's barely better.

On the other hand, I've used Intellij for years and it's never been that bad. It has much lower cpu/ram consumption even while having almost everything enabled. I've used the same configuration for years though, so it's possible that at some point I disabled whatever causes such resource usage and completely forgot about it. Or maybe the editors are actually different, though from my understanding they all share the same core.
