I'll second the zed recommendation, sent from my M4 macbook. I don't know why exactly it's doing this for you but mine is idling with ~500MB RAM (about as little as you can get with a reasonably-sized Rust codebase and a language server) and 0% CPU.

I have also really appreciated something that felt much less janky, had better vim bindings, and wasn't slow to start even on a very fast computer. You can completely botch Cursor if you type really fast. On an older mid-range laptop, I ran into problems with a bunch of its auto-pair stuff of all things.

Yeah, same. Zed is incredibly efficient on my M1 Pro. It's my daily driver these days, and my Python setup in it is almost perfect.

What’s your Python setup?

In my case this was the culprit: https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/13190 otherwise it worked great mostly.

Are you running ollama local model or one of the zed llms?
