Have you tried editing your IDEA.BAT file?  I found changeing the line to
look like this helped a lot:

SET JVM_ARGS=-ms134m -mx160m -Dsun.java2d.noddraw=true

Give it a try and see how it works for you.

Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

#612, JDK 1.3.1_02, 
OS:     NT4.0, 1Ghz Pentium III, 380 MB RAM, IDE disks
OS2:    W2K server, 700Mhz Thunderbird, 512 MB RAM, IDE disks

I came to a point, when I have to say:
        "Slow down new features, speed up the IDE"
It is getting terribly slow. I have problems with typing characters, redraws
of menus, redraws of views (EJB/project/structure etc) and with startup. I
also experience problems with memory (already posted).

On the W2K I cannot use IDEA at all - it is too slow for anything
On NT it is worse and worse with every build.

Please try to focus on the speed of the environment too.

Thx, Tomas Langer
