Describe the Bug
Cursor freezes after 2 seconds and cannot recover, only for 1 project I have.
Cursor is responsive for approximately 2 seconds.
Cursor freezes, and the AI pane is spinning “conversation loading” in the background indefinitely. Cursor CPU usage at 100%.
Steps to Reproduce
Open cursor (with a project with extremely long conversation length?)
Expected Behavior
Cursor opens without freezing
Operating System
Linux
Current Cursor Version (Menu → About Cursor → Copy)
Version: 1.2.4

Additional Information
Note this also happened before I updated in version 1.1.2
Thankfully 2 seconds is enough to quickly open a new project. If it wasn’t I would be completely unable to use cursor. I am unable to use it for this project unfortunately.
I imagine this is because I have an extremely long AI conversation, but I don’t remember, I last opened this project in cursor a long time ago
Does this stop you from using Cursor
Yes - Cursor is unusable
