编辑器滞后中的Intellij IDEA光标导航

Question

After running IDEA for a few hours I've noticed that navigation starts to lag in the Editor. When I type something in it takes about 1-2 seconds to unfreeze the cursor. When I open a new line it also freezes for a while (pressing enter 5 times would freeze IDEA for around 10 seconds, if I wait every time until it unfreezes), as well as in similar situations. It feels that it is doing some sort of search (maybe index search) in background when the cursor freezes. Currently jvm heap shows at 292MB out of 674MB.

What such problems can be related to and how to troubleshoot them?

[UPDATE]

Also OutOfMemory exception is thrown.

[UPDATE II]

Note that in Windows Task Manager memory usage is shown at nearly 1GB (which doesn't match suggested 292MB). Intellij built-in memory dump has produced a 500MB file. WTM shown memory in Intellij has gone down to 500MB as well (but it is still slow).

Answer 1

I used to have these types of problems and they seemed to be related to source control integration (Perforce in particular). If you use source control, try to disable it and see what happens.
