> Autocomplete even on really expensive IDEs runs way to slow..

Not true for jetbrains ones. Autocomplete speed is One of the reasons for me to go for their toolbox subscription

Even with a fully unlocked enterprise license on it, autocomplete was lagging far behind me on a high end macbook pro. Maybe I just type too fast or the libraries I use are poorly laid out, but it was not working.
Java.
I recently fired up WebStorm and found typing to be slower than atom for most files. I wouldn't open a large file in atom, sure, but it's been getting better in that regard and generally most of my code files are < 400 lines anyway.
