Greetings CodeProject community,

I hope you are all doing great. I am here today to seek some guidance regarding a technical issue I'm facing while developing software on my Intel Evo laptop.

I have been using my Intel Evo certified laptop for software development for a while now and have found it to be a reliable machine. However, I recently ran into a peculiar problem that has been hindering my development workflow.

The issue I'm experiencing is related to the performance of my IDE (Integrated Development Environment). Whenever I launch my IDE and start working on my project, I notice a significant lag in the responsiveness of the software. Simple tasks like navigating through code, saving files, or even typing become sluggish, making the development process quite frustrating.

Here are some additional details about my laptop:

Model: Intel Evo certified laptop (Yoga 7 16IAP7)
Processor: 12th Gen Intel® Core™ i5-1240P, 12C (4P + 8E) / 16T, P-core 1.7 / 4.4GHz, E-core 1.2 / 3.3GHz, 12MB
Operating System: Windows 11

I have tried a few troubleshooting steps to address this issue, such as updating my IDE to the latest version, optimizing the project settings, and disabling unnecessary plugins and extensions. However, these attempts have not yielded any improvement in performance.

I'm curious to know if any other developers who own an Intel Evo laptop have encountered a similar problem while using their preferred IDEs or if they have any suggestions on how to improve the performance. I would greatly appreciate any insights, tips, or potential solutions you can offer.

Thank you all in advance for your valuable time and assistance. I am eagerly looking forward to hearing your thoughts and suggestions.

Best regards,
Yamaris Johnson

I have removed the link, since it could make your question look like spam.

You've missed off some important details of the spec: how much RAM does it have, what sort of disk does it have, what security software is it running, etc.

You should also try to measure the performance to see where the bottleneck is. It could be running low on RAM; it could be struggling to access the disk; or it could be something else entirely.

If the general performance isn't great, then you'll need to talk to the supplier to find out what your options are.

Alternatively, you could try setting up a "dev disk" to see if that helps:

12 MB is not enough. Tip #1. Run "nothing else" except the IDE. No browsers; nada. A browser can easily consume 1GB+. And be constantly "calling home".
