I tend to feel fine with IDEs using buckets of resources, after all: they are specialist tools.
But I have been using their jetbrains remote system, and you can clearly see how incredibly high the RAM usage is on both server and client.
Personally I am also looking at the door, but not because of the resource usage… but because they keep putting resources into things which aren’t their core offering and it makes me wonder if they have run out of innovation in that area.
… then again, they did recently figure out how to make development on a Windows remote work… so I can keep using my linux machine while developing Windows software, so I think that earned a lot of goodwill from me.
