I really dig the idea of Pycharm and would love to use it. However, its tendency to consume the computer\'s processing power and lag is a large drawback.

    The slow performance of PyCharm is mainly due to small amount of RAM. I am running PyCharm on a machine with 2GB RAM. Here are my recommendations on making it work smoother.

    1. You can't really tweak PyCharm for performance balancing the power it provides. If you turn off the inspection or works on Power Saver Mode, You won't get code completion unless you manually invoke it with Ctrl + Space.

    2. Switch to a lighter Operating System. (If you are a Linux person you have a plenty of choices.)

    3. Monitor other System processes. (I was able to bring down standby memory usage of Kubuntu to less than 300MB by disabling other 'useless' processes that eat up memory)

    4. Disable unused plugins in PyCharm.

    5. Modern browsers are memory hungry. Limit number of tabs and plugins (even Adblock consumes around 70MB RAM) if you open docs on brower while you code.

    6. Update your hardware. (This really helps. Invest on RAM so you can ignore the points above)

    WingIDE is an another IDE that works somewhat similar to PyCharm.
