Hi Jeff,

I tried CLion. After a ~10 minute-long freeze (indexing the code) it
crashed due to lack of memory. With a 6 GB java heap the project loaded,
but the editor was veeery slow.

IMHO Get Atom if you need something easy to use on a Mac or Visual
Studio (if you like "big" C++ IDEs).

Cheers,
Tom
