IntelliJ IDEA does very little logging. The only way to make it spew more logs is to modify the IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition source code and add more logging statements.

As the commenters correctly pointed out, a much better way to see what IntelliJ IDEA is doing is to capture its thread dump using jstack.
