after 15 minutes, Cursor is getting very slow. I think it is linked with only a precise project I started exactly when cursor 1.0 came out. I started cursor after that with no extensions but It changed nothing. What to do ? I also set up .ignoreCursor and often start new Chats. I also set the chat to manual mode but cursor stays very slow. Other things to try ? It is very slow when I activate a new file.
Thanks for your help.

Hey, this issue is usually related to a large chat history in your project. To solve the problem, try manually deleting most of the history, possibly the oldest chats. You can also try renaming or moving the project. This will help you quickly clear the history.

Additionally, you can delete the history by navigating to this path and sorting the folders by modification date. Choose the one that was used recently, you can delete it or save a backup just in case:

Windows: %APPDATA%\Cursor\User\workspaceStorage
macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Cursor/User/workspaceStorage
Linux: ~/.config/Cursor/User/workspaceStorage
