IntelliJ IDEA is easily the worst performing application I use.

I only use it because of the top class Kotlin support (figures, given JetBrains created it).

I end up regularly toggling Power Save mode on and off to reduce how much my CPU gets blown up. That mode turns off code suggestion, auto-imports, and error detection among other pretty core things.
