Here is my recipe how to speed up WebStorm:

Go to Preferences and do next:
Appearance & Behaviour > System Settings > Updates: disable auto update
Appearance & Behaviour > System Settings > Using Statistics: Uncheck allowing sending data
Editor > Live Templates: disable all, leave only what you are really use
Editor > Emmet: disable all emmets
Editor > Intentions: I leave only: CSS, Declaration, JavaScript and Language Injection
Plugins: leave only next (* - can be also disabled in case don't need them):
CoffeeScript *
