IntelliJ 8.1.3 really slow debugging

Hey,

Last week I upgraded IntelliJ 6 to IntelliJ 8.1.3.  However now my debugger in intelliJ is really slow.

I run the app I'm working with in Debug mode.  Then when any user interaction is required it even takes a second to have a button highlighted.  Pressing such a button has a reaction of several seconds.
When it should open a new screen it also takes minutes instead of seconds.  Even opening a little popup for a datepicker takes 25 seconds.
This behaviour immediately stops when I mute breakpoints and everything works as it should.  However this gives me a serious debugging handicap.
This all happens in client code (Swing).  So this should be independent of any application server.

I'm using IntelliJ IDEA 8.1.3
Maven2
Weblogic 10.3
Java 5
WinXP sp2

Ensure that the "Watch method return value" toogle toolbar is not selected.

Hey thanks,

I'm unsure where I can find this option.  It shouldn't be in the Settings then, I can't find that using the filter in the IDEA settings.

Also make sure you have no Method Breakpoints.  Having even one of these really slows down the debugger.

To check, go to Run -> View Breakpoints
Then click on the Method Breakpoints tab and remove all entries.

Please check the toolbar buttons in the debug view.

Thanks, that did it.

I did seem to have a method breakpoint somewhere.

I had the same problem debugging a script with many function calls. I've hidden the window of the call stack in the debugger tab and the debugger has started to run at the usual speed.
