Since yesterday, the cursor has been laggier and freezes when submitting chat sessions. Then, the app keeps crashing and restarting. Hopefully, this will be fixed in the next version.

Hey, I think this might be related to having too much chat history stored. To solve this problem, try deleting some of the history, either by renaming your project to start fresh or by moving your project to a different location on your computer.

I also have the same problem, I hope to add a function to manually delete part of the chat, such as the earlier chat deleted it doesn’t matter

still doing it. I only started using cursor a few days ago withourt any result out of these tools, what a disapointment. I hope they will fix it. The only thing which is working perfectly is their code to increase the money counter in the Currrent Usage Cost!!!  
4 to 6 days wasted so far!!!  
Tools, which tools!!!.

Yes, I think this is because I have a long chat history in one session. I keep it this way because I still need the conversation’s context.

However, since this issue keeps happening, I tried creating a new chat session, and yeah, it’s working now! It’s no longer closing.

Still, I hope this issue gets resolved in the next version.
