Is there any possibility to remove unused features from IntelliJ IDEA 14?

Purpose:

  • better performance
  • ease of use

Some examples for unused features:

  • File > New Project... - Griffon, Flash
  • File > Settings... > Editor > Code Style - ActionScript, CoffeeScript, Gherkin
  • Tools > Capture Memory Snapshot

Choose Menu File \ Settings... or press Ctrl+Alt+S. Choose Plugins, disable unnecessary plugin:

Then press Apply, OK, restart IntelliJ IDEA to feeling the difference. That help decrement IntelliJ IDEA's start up time, and increment performance (like suggest code , operation faster etc.)
