I tried switching from vim to PyCharm about a year ago. I found it incredibly slow.

With vim or ST2, I do my work and don't think about the editor keeping up. With PyCharm, my typing could briefly outrun the editor. The editor would catchup, but it was just distracting.

I don't think the IDE gave me any features that justified this distraction.
