Aren't they known to be a bit slow though? I've only used IntelliJ IDEA and the editor was great, but it was incredibly slow on startup and was a memory hog

You could actually tweak the memory usage of IntelliJ in the settings, and if it is slow to start you can use pre-built caches for your codebase so it won't have to index it everytime at startup.
