WebStorm performance is janky; it freezes every second or so

I'm on WebStorm 2025.3.1.1 and I'm finding it very janky right now.

Try:

  • typing in the editor pane
  • in editor pane or terminal, holding down the cursor key and letting the caret travel
  • slowly drag any scrollbar

All of these operations are interrupted every 1000ms or so for about 100ms then carry on.

You can really feel it, all the time.

I've done the usual and invalidated caches, etc.

Would it be possible to collect a CPU snapshot while reproducing the issue:
1) Help > Diagnostic tools > Start CPU usage profiling
2) perform the actions which are causing the slowness, try to reproduce the performance problem several times while the snapshot is being recorded
3) Help > Diagnostic tools > Stop CPU usage profiling
 
and share it along with the IDE logs (can be collected with the Help > Collect Logs and Diagnostic Data menu action) and the description of your steps in a new youtrack ticket ( https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issues/WEB) so we can investigate your problem more thoroughly?
