I try Rider ever so often but what specs are your system; it is basically unusable after I load one of our bigger projects... My m1 16gb just grinds to halt and before I had a beefy thinkpad with 32gb and that stalled completely too. While VS has no issue at all.

Are you sure you’re running a native ARM build of Rider? And how are you running _Visual Studio_ (not VS Code) on an M1-equipped machine?

I have a 16gb Surface Book 2 at work and a personal high specced Dell XPS 9570, both are perfectly fine, even with quite big solutions. Rider has fairly long startup because it's indexing _everything_(this is why code completion is so good) but other than that it is perfectly fluid to work with. With VS(2019) Roslynator worked fine but solution would also take a lot of time to load. I have more issues with Teams than any IDE to be honest.

Have you tried Rider for Apple Silicon? You can grab a preview here https://rider-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/articles/440192...

I've heard JetBrains' IDEs have had performance problems on macOS forever from Mac users (is it because of the Java?). They work great on Windows and Linux in my experience.
