PhpStorm extremly slow
Hello,
PhpStorm needs over one minute to start. After I see the main screen i can go into settings, but it needs again about one minute until it shows any options.
I have already tried to delete all PhpStorm related folders and download it again. Also tried to use openjdk7 and openjdk8, always the same Problem. I am running Arch linux 64 Bit.
I also use WebStorm, it is working without any Problems, only PhpStorm is affected.
When i start PhpStorm via console there do not show up any errors.
I also made a Video: https://youtu.be/cbJvrljtOQk
Does anybody have an idea what i can do?
Regards,
Stefan

Hi Stefan,
Could you please restart the IDE and then collect the IDE log?
Also, please attach a Perfomance Summary report from 'Help | Diagnostic | Show Perfomance Summary'.
Hello and thanks for your reply.

I can not see any problems here - hopefully you can see something.
After some testing - after the IDE is fully loaded i can work normaly. When I open a project instead of the settings like in the video PhpStorm takes a long time to index the project (about the same time it needs to load the settings). But after that point it seems everything works without any problems.

Oh my gosh - I found the problem.
The hostname of my Computer (/etc/hostname) was not set inside my hosts file (/etc/hosts) to resolve to 127.0.0.1. After adding the hostname inside hosts file PhpStorm starts within a few seconds.
Even if WebStorm was starting a lot faster than PhpStorm it was also affected. WebStorm now starts within a few seconds, before it took about 10 to 15 seconds, i thought that this was normal.
