Jetbrains IDE, sure, they take their sweet time indexing your project, but once per start.

The Java LSP is a egregious "thing" that takes 10 to 30s to read your whole project for the n-th time while eating 40GiB of RAM in the process. On a loop, EVERY time you view a new file.

Where is my goddam lsif/scip support?

You shouldn't be seeing indexing once per start. The indexes are stored to disk. You might see the IDE scan files to figure out if anything changed whilst the IDE was stopped.
How did you manage to get the Java LSP to do that? Mine just insist on re-parsing the entire codebase every time I view a file.
Ah sorry, I've never used that. I was talking about IntelliJ and related IDEs.
