Ask HN: Fastest AI code completion plugin for Jetbrains IDEs?

I've been using (and loving) SuperMaven, but the project seems completely abandoned after Cursor acquired them. I can't switch to Cursor since I require the integrations that a real IDE provides, but JetBrain's attempt at AI code completion is INSANELY slow!

Are there any alternatives to SuperMaven that anyone here recommends? SuperMavens' integration & speed with my larger codebases was amazing, and it's a shame it's abandoned - I cannot swap to Cursor.

In the Jetbrains AI assistant plugin, you should be able to choose a faster model. Does that help at all?
Jetbrains benchmarked the options last month: https://blog.jetbrains.com/ai/2025/03/how-to-choose-the-righ...
