In no other application like IntelliJ or Visual Studio, you need to change the size at all. It is still working fast. Of Course it could be about the using modules, the used Memory, the opened Projects etc.
I realized it too, that the debugger is quite slow sometimes in some cases like jumping to code, maybe it is not about the debugger maybe it is the function where you can go to code when you jump into the code via breakpoints. I think the debugger needs a deeper look to optimize it. I really think, that there can be a lot of improvements. Cheers Chris Von: Lars Bruun-Hansen Gesendet: Dienstag, 14.

Jaroslav's suggestion will tell you if you have shortage of heap.
