Hi,

We're using an older version of IntelliJ IDEA (2019.2.4) due to compatibility issues with older Gradle and Java. It's running pretty well on an i5 Mac. After switching to an Apple M1 chip, the same app is running very slow and laggy. We would upgrade to an Apple Silicon supported version but our project can't run on those due to lack of support for Java 8 and Gradle 2.13.

Thanks

What kind of compatibility issues are observed with Gradle 2.13 and Java 8 in the latest version of IntelliJ IDEA? There is no option to build arm64 build of 2019.2.4, however, there is an ability to fix 2021.3.* <-> Java 8 (Gradle 2.13) compatibility issues.

When syncing project, an error

"Gradle sync failed: Unsupported Gradle. The project uses Gradle 2.13 which is incompatible with IntelliJ IDEA 2021.3.1."

error occurs.

Oh, you are right here. 
See https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-275756#focus=Comments-27-5114377.0-0

There is an experimental option GRADLE.system.in.process which one can disable to force IDE launch even the Gradle Tooling API from it's own process, separate from the IDE, but this mode is still buggy and still requires a lot of efforts to make it stable and usable.

You may try it, but running IntelliJ IDEA in compatibility mode (via Rosetta) seems to be a lesser evil. Or even update your project to Gradle 3
