Pycharm is just super clunky and heavy to use
Pycharm feels so clunky and heavy. Right now I have 3 different windows open and each with their own blue bar at the bottom which have issues as:
- Low memory increase the heap size
- querying skeleton generator
- 2 processes running.
Another 20 min snoozeer:
- Cleaning up skeleton
- Indexing
Every time I have to start a new window it takes 30 minutes for it to be functional. I have a very high end machine with plenty of ram and cpu as I do lot of computational mathematics but PyCharm is the one slowing me down. I am using the professional version of PyCharm.

Hi!
Just to exclude possible issues with third-party plugins, try to disable any custom/downloaded plugins you might have. If that's not helping, I suggest following this guide to report a performance problem to our issue tracker.

I have an Intel Core Ultra 7 155H with 32GB 6400 MT/s RAM. Even with that, PyCharm slows down to a crawl. Even hovering my mouse pointer over PyCharm lags when I move it. PyCharm just feels very heavy nowadays. Maybe you're adding so much code and features that aren't supposed to be there necessarily. Just be what you do best, a Python/Django code editor. Leave the other stuff to other third party apps. I am considering of switching to VSCode and cancelling my subscription of PyCharm for good if I sense no improvement soon.
