Thank you for the link. It almost completely answers my initial question.

The only question that I still have about pycharm-professional is given below,
after the quote from previous e-mails.

Thank you for your reply. Does it means that pycharm-professional package
in Gentoo will not work or will not install without providing a license number
from JetBrains or something like that?

On the official pycharm site, the professional version of pycharm is provided
with 30-day trial period. After end of that trial period, the
professional license
should be bought. That let me wonder if some payment will be necessary
for using pycharm-professional in Gentoo as well from the very beginning.
I just have not formulated it clearly in my initial question.

Thank you for additional information.

I have read in this mailing list (may be it was your thread) that using profiles
in firefox is another source of crashes. So, I do not use profiles, and now hope
that it means that I do not use psd as well. :)

Ah! No, they are too different things.

I have not read anywhere that the use of multiple user profiles causes FF to 
crash.  Perhaps some addons may do.

The use of psd on the other hand is a useful package, minimising the writing 
cycles of the browser's cache to disk.  If your PC is running on SDD or hybrid 
disks and has enough RAM, then a profile-sync-daemon (when it is not buggy) 
should be a good thing.

It is the same package as you get from JetBrains, so you still get the
30 days trial.

I have nine Firefox profiles here.  Any problems I have had have turned
out to be a bad add on.  Sometimes I turn off auto update and new
Firefox doesn't like old add on.  It is rare that I have Firefox crash. 
It may get slow at times but it keeps chugging along.  Generally I have
four or five profiles running and sometimes even more.  I use different
profiles for different tasks with different add ons.  I've noticed that
the more add ons one has, the slower it tends to get.  I sort of spread
them out a bit.

Multiple profiles for the same user.

Ok, thank you for the information. I still use only HDDs. So, I
probably do not need psd so far.

Probably, you meant that problems with old add ons arise when firefox
auto update is turned on. If so, I do agree.

> It is rare that I have Firefox crash.

Unfortunately, even a rare Firefox crash has long standing consequences. :(

If multiple Firefox profiles do not increase the probability of its crash
any more, than it is a good news because they are really useful.

Anyway, I still afraid to use them so far.

I also have more than one profiles, with different/no addons and 
configurations and have not experienced any crashes on my PC.

Well, that is sometimes why I turn auto update off on some add ons. 
Sometimes, since I am on a older version of Firefox, newer add ons don't
work.  I might add, some older add ons won't work with newer Firefox at
all.  Firefox disables them and works just not with the add on.  Tab
utilities is one of them.

I use session manager on most profiles and even if it does crash, I can
go back right away.  I don't recall losing anything.  On some profiles,
I have dozens of tabs open, sometimes close to and even over 100.

I been using profiles for a few years with no issues.  My biggest cause
of problems is incompatibility of add ons when either Firefox or the add
on gets updated.  It may be worth checking into again.  Could be that
all the new coding fixed issues you had before.  One thing about it, you
can always remove the newer profiles and go back to the old way.
