Curious, though I feel like when I develop using an IDE like intellij, there's some sluggishness when the project files are on the wsl file system. Is it because of mixing between the windows one where the IDE is installed, and the wsl one?

Yes, the WSL2 implementation uses a sort-of SMB to mix filesystems, compared to WSL1’s “real” syscall translations etc.
