intellij IDEA 14 in ubuntu is very slow

I have an HP Pavilion DV6 laptop with Intel Core-i7 2.00GHz × 8 Processor and 8GB RAM and running Ubuntu 14.04 64bit on it, but after updating to Intellij IDEA 14.0.2 every move in IDE get about 10 to 20 second delay.

Anyone having same issue or know how to resolve it?

Editing the idea64.vmoptions in the bin folder and setting the max heap to 8 GB (was 512 MB) and the Max PermGen to at least 1GB Change the max permgen size if you are using the default which is around 300mb

-Xms128m
-Xmx8192m
-XX:MaxPermSize=1024m

Restart the ide
