Composer constantly updating
Updated my composer config file because some repos where moved to another service. Updated and installed, correctly importing the repositories. But now PHPStorm event constantly shows updates to composer packages, every minute in Event Log:
9:35 AM Composer: Composer packages were changed, so excluded folders were updated. (show balloon)
9:35 AM Composer: Composer packages were changed, so PHP include paths were updated. (show balloon)
9:36 AM Composer: Composer packages were changed, so excluded folders were updated. (show balloon)
9:36 AM Composer: Composer packages were changed, so PHP include paths were updated. (show balloon)
9:37 AM Composer: Composer packages were changed, so excluded folders were updated. (show balloon)
9:37 AM Composer: Composer packages were changed, so PHP include paths were updated. (show balloon)
Is there some way to prevent composer from constantly looking for updates/changes to the config file? It is slowing my system down by constantly doing the check in the background.

Do I get right that in fact composer.json doesn't get changed every minute?
If so, please try to run through caches invalidation (File | Invalidate Caches / Restart) and check if the issue persists afterwards.
The composer file does not change every minute, i confirmed that not a single composer.json file in all the included projects changed. Ran:
find . -type f -name composer.json | xargs stat -f '%c' | sort | xargs -I {} date -r {}Newest changed file was Tue Dec 12 14:43:07 2017
PHPStorm still shows today:
Performed a Invalidate Caches / Restart, did not change anything either.
Does it mean you can literally do nothing in IDE and it would still show those notifications? Would it be possible to upload idea.log somewhere (Help > Show log in...)?
What OS are you on? Are there symlinks in a project?
As long as the IDE has focus the notifications occur. After enabling Power Save Mode the processor use has gone down but still see the composer messages every minute.
OS X El Capitan (10.11.6)
PHPStorm 2017.2.4
One of the projects folders is symlinked in, but that has been that way for nearly a year with no problem.
