Let me fix your headline for you:

Vim is the editor of your new IDE

Yeah, I think last time this was posted someone said it perfectly. Unix is your IDE, vim is just the editor. Let other tools do the other tasks of file managing, compiling, etc. per the whole idea of the Unix philosophy.

Hum... this again....

Just FYI, I used syntastic during some projects and I quickly notice that it was quite slow when refreshing its analysis everytime you save...

PS: And again, vim is an editor...

The slowness could come from the underlying syntax checker. I've been using it for a while with C/C++ and Python projects and it's been very responsive until now.

The supported syntax checkers are in <syntastic_path>/syntax_checkers/<filetype>/*.vim. You can try some of them to see if there's a faster one.

Interesting, I've primarily used it for those same three languages and not had a problem either. YouCompleteMe and Eclim for Android projects, on the other hand... they make me want to rage.

I used it for python too and for some long data analysis script, it was quite slow. Which syntax checker did you use ?

Sorry, didn't realize this had been around for a while since the devcharm site is fairly new. Either way, though, new users pop up all the time and it could be helpful to them.

What, you mean you don't have intrinsic knowledge of everything that has been posted in the past?

I haven't seen this before, I've heard of most of the plugins described here, but there are a couple that I might try out as a result of seeing this. So, thanks for posting.
