Running Jest makes IntelliJ freeze during indexing
Answered
Every time I run “Jest runner” of a React/NextJs project does IntelliJ afterwards freeze during an indexing.
Sometimes I unfreeze by itself after a minute. Sometimes I need to kill IntelliJ.
I guess the indexing starts because files is modified, but I can't see which. I have tried to exclude folders from indexing under “Project Structure…” without help. Are there any way I can figure out what is indexed so it can be excluded, or somehow else be fixed?
I'm using IntelliJ IDEA 2024.2.4 (Ultimate Edition). The issue didn't happen with earlier versions

Hi Theis,
Does the problem go away if you temporarily disable all of the non-bundled plugins and restart the IDE? File | Settings | Plugins | ⚙ | Disable all downloaded plugins
If not, please provide IDE logs for analysis (entire archive): Help | Collect Logs and Diagnostic Data. I will search for exceptions, check automatically generated application thread dumps and your system environment settings.
Logs can be uploaded privately to our server at https://uploads.jetbrains.com. Make sure to share the id of the upload here so that I can find it.
Hi Arina Efremova . Thanks for your answer. You're right - it have been an plugin that have given the issue.
Disabling the plugins has resolved it. I'm slowly enabling the plugins to try to figure out which one was the cause. But I haven't found out which one it was yet.
Thanks for the help. Issue resolved
