Re: Will "Performance" (and stability) sometime appear in NetBeans roadmap?

I have about 40 large projects open in NetBeans IDE at the same time. I do
not have performance issues.

For me the trick has been to allocate sufficient memory to NetBeans IDE.
I'm currently allowing it to take (up to) 4 GB of memory which is probably
an overkill, but nevertheless. The disk where the projects reside is local
and based on SSD.  I suspect that if your projects are on a network share
then you are really shooting yourself in the foot.

Just some hints. Hope you can use them.
