Re: [ide-dev] Eclipse is more memory-efficient than Intellij

Yes, the comparision methodology is very questionable. Also they compare apples with oranges (two IDE's are running with different GC implementations). NB: Eclipse 4.7 was used, and I bet on 4.9+ with the heavy changed JDT for Java 9+ support we would see different numbers anyway.

Oh, I would be *very* careful with that. I can backfire quickly. :)

 

The author didn't disclose what Eclipse package is used. It could be a very basic Eclipse package. He is comparing it with Intellij Ultimate edition. I'm not sure about the value of this a comparison.

 

The author is also not disclosing details of the project setup. For example, was it a vanilla JDT project or a Maven project with M2E? Was there any Webtool extension/nature associated with it? I would expect the memory profile to be very different just between the three I mentioned.
