I may have to investigate how to submit one of the snapshots metioned in the support faq. I'm wondering if its my setup - but this is a relatively new high end macbook pro, and equally a fairly new installation of Idea. Meet the newly released IntelliJ IDEA 2017.3.4 Packed with a whole variety of improvements, our fourth bug fix update for IntelliJ IDEA 2017.3 is ready for download. Its not always - but frequently enough to be annoying. Similarly it you jump to a new file and start to type - it sometimes takes seconds before the characters appear. Equally when typing - the code completion menus take seconds to snap into place (long enough to make you disoriented). I notice that scrolling though source code with the trackpad has moments where it stutters and doesn't want to move on and then suddenly catches up. I need to go back to 2016 to see if its actually the new 2017 release or whether Idea is just slow for node projects (its been a few years since I've used it in anger on java projects - where it was acceptable on quite large projects). Price: Community Edition is free Ultimate Edition starts at $149 for the first year for an individual or $499 per year for an organization, with numerous discounts available.I have the same problem - it doesn't hang but wow its slow on a fast macbook pro even in a smallish nodejs project.
