Slow debug refresh with node.js
I'm using IntelliJ with a simple node.js 6.x CLI project.
When debugging the project in step-over mode, I noticed that the refresh "Variable" window panel is slow for updating data
After each step, it displays a "Collecting data..." which is pretty time consuming.
Miss something ?

what Idea version do you use? May be related to https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WEB-21192...
2016.2.4, and the problem remains
Can you check if the problem persists when using different Node.js versions (4.x, for example)? Also, can you provide a sample project I can use to recreate the issue?
You just create a CLI node.js project with a tiny test like :
var a=5, b=6;
a++;
b = 6;
b+= a*5;
You set a breakpoint on the first line, and you debug step-by-step :
With VSCode (for instance) no delay, the refresh is fast without redrawing the whole debug variable window.
And yes the behaviour is the same with all node version
