Code completion and code generation support offered is orders of magnitude better due to the very same indexes.In Eclipse you have to launch analysis manually, in IntelliJ you will have the feedback on those immediately. These fast indexing benefits are paying off in several different usability features: Whatever the JetBrains guys are doing under the hood, their indexing is blazingly fast and supports different content. But this feature is backed by something that makes many other IntelliJ features so much more pleasing to use. Based on the documentation it is not doing much – just using the suggested quick fix.
