intellij 8 - slow

I just installed version 8 and I'm upset that my productivity due to it's slowness has gone down to maybe 10%...what's up with version 8 being very slow while i'm editing and moving around in the editor?

What do I need to turn off so that the editing session can go faster?

I should clarify, I was running the pre-release version of 8 and version 7 and they were working just fine on the same machine.

Machine has 2GB and a core-2-duo chip.

I'm still having some performance issues with 8.1.

Each time I open/create a new class, change the implementing interfaces or extending class, the code inspections/analysis takes about 10 seconds. This is becoming very annoying after a while! I believe this behaviour started with 8.0 final and was not present in the milestone/RC versions. Upgrading to 8.1 didn't seem to help.

My system is running XP 32bit on a mobile core 2 @ 2.16 GHz, 3.25GB ram.

I have tried to disable various plugins and inspections without any noticably effect.
My vmoptions for the moment are:


-server
-Xms512m
-Xmx768m
-Xmn256m
-XX:MaxPermSize=384m

This is about as high as I can go before the jvm and thus IDEA cannot be started.

Does anyone have any suggestions? I would hate to downgrade to 7.x as I like 8.1 besides this problem.

Hello Olav,

Please take a CPU snapshot of the code analysis process as described in http://jetbrains.net/devnet/docs/DOC-192
and file a JIRA issue with the snapshot attached.

Oh wow. The plugin replacements linked in the JIRA issue make a huge difference. Intellij 8 is finally usable again. I was seriously thinking of trying out Netbeans or even, God forbid, Eclipse. Thank you!!
