If editors own memory usage is your main concern then you should use emacs or even better mg or vi.

The editor + its plugins + it's LSP server is what counts. I dont care if zed is written in rust and uses 400MB when it spawns a multi GB nodejs process when I work on my tiny golang project.

I mean all 3 of those also support LSP plugins, so would also spawn "multi GB nodeJS processes" with your tiny golang projects if you enable them.

Yeah but other editors do not foolishly choose to install and run those things out of the box.
