While gedit-code-assistance is great for small files, trying to use it with big files (eg. https://github.com/hughsie/zif/blob/master/tools/zif-main.c) is really painful on my machine (2GB of RAM).
It uses a lot of memory, making the machine slow and unresponsive, and thus making coding a lot harder, causing a major slowdown for every single letter I type, in addition.
