I know and am perfectly fine with buying more Ram. But its hard to convince other people to use this because everybody can't ask for >256MB (which seems reasonabily enough memory for developer's machines). Though I wish every java developer should use IDEA and pity on those who don't know what it brings to the productivity.

In our project (~700 classes) and a fairly large class path Idea will use approx 80M after a couple of minutes of intense work. I have set max memory usage to 192 MB, but I've never seen it reach that high. And even if it did I'd restart Idea, which just takes 30 odd seconds. I'd prefer the incredibly skilled developers at Intellij add more productivity increasing features to Idea than spend a lot of time on minimizing memory usage. Best regards from an incredibly satisifed customer!

I am running IDEA (Build 459) with 64MB at startup and 96MB max with JDK1.3.1. Project contains only ~200 classes but classpath is little heavy. I am working on a single project most of the times so no project-switch. Mostly simple java/jsp/ejb development with sometimes code-refactoring and using ANT from command-line. The memory indicate reads 55M of 64M within 10-12 hours of IDE startup. And if I dont run gc, it reaches 86M of 96M after 4-5 days of use. Though its simple to stop/start IDEA but not convincing. People responsible for this wonder feature-rich tool should be able to solve these memory leak problems.
