[Pycharm] always indexing everytime opened, anyone else encountering this too?
Answered
I'm using PyCharm 2022.3.3 (Professional Edition) on Windows10.
I find that (nearly) everytime I open Pycharm it starts indexing, but I never install/uninstall/update any python/conda packages, nor update a lot of files in my project directory. Actually there aren't many files in my project (like around 15 python .py files). I even marked the `.git` folder as excluded.
It's just like i code for a while in the afternoon, and when i reopen pycharm in the evening, it starts indexing again.
Does anybody else encounter this problem too? Is there any effective solution to this? This is a bit too annoying and would literally ruin my coding experience :(. Desperately wanted a solution.

Hi. My problem is every morning when I wake my laptop and open up pycharm it reindexes. Nothing has changed since the night before. And i get a "local history is broken" message despite having turned local history off. This was not happening in pycharm 2022. But ever since i upgraded to 2023 it happens every day. Is this just me or are there others reporting this?
I've encountered the same issue. Previous version didn't had the problem and now, everytime I launch Pycharm it reindex.
Same issue. [upvote] It happens to me on opening the app every day. PyCharm 2023.1.4 (Pro) build# PY-231.9225.15 on Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS. Plenty of available disk.
I do see at least one message like this in idea.log (not comfortable posting full stack trace, and it's very long):
"WARN - #xxxxxx.ProjectFrameAllocator - Cannot load project in 10 seconds"
Have the same issue for the last 1 year or so. Every time I open PyCharm I need to wait for it to reindex everything (current PyCharm version 2023.2.1 but I think it started with either 2022 or 2023 version).
I have the same problem since i upgraded from 2022 to PyCharm 2023.1.2 (Professional Edition) Build #PY-231.9011.38, built on May 16, 2023.
(mac, montery, m1 pro)
I get "unable to save settings" and "connection failed too many files open" messages while it indexes. I tried invalidating cache but everytime I open my mac and switch to the pycharm app its reindexing.

- Screenshot of your [interpreter settings](https://www.jetbrains.com/help/pycharm/configuring-python-interpreter.html)
i keep it open overnight. (Btw. im not the original poster who also had this issue).
If it helps, im using a remote python 3.11.3 docker compose interpreter.
1) Add the following lines to **Help | Diagnostic Tools | Debug Log Settings...**:
```
#com.jetbrains.python.sdk.PythonSdkUpdater$Trigger
```
(keep the # character)
2) Reproduce the issue and provide logs from **Help | Collect Logs and Diagnostic Data**.
For me, it's even worse. It runs indexing every few minutes when I just editing one file from the project.
Same here, running PyCharm 2023.1.2 (Professional Edition)

Why does it reindex every few minutes even though nothing changed, not even in libraries? Is there a way to disable auto indexing and instead manually index whenever needed? It's a workflow killer.
