IntelliJ Crashes Every Minute

Answered

I'm using IntelliJ 2020.3, on Linux (Ubuntu 20.04.1), Java 11, and IntelliJ crashes around every minute. There are no *.log files anywhere. I think this happens to *.jar and *.class files too. In the console, all I see is the following message: "OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM warning: Option UseConcMarkSweepGC was deprecated in version 9.0 and will likely be removed in a future release." Why is this happening?

Do you have java_error_in_*.log files inside the user profile (home) folder.
If you don't see them, add -XX:ErrorFile=/tmp/java_error_%p.log into .vmoptions (https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/articles/206544869). Make sure the specified folder has write permissions. 
Also, please define if you noticed that the crash occurs after an exact action (display detaching, plugin update or so).

I set that. However, there's no file. Also, there's no action that makes the crash occur, as even if I don't touch IntelliJ it crashes.

Any records in syslog, or in /var/log/messages? 

Every java process logs the crash.
