Problems with Cursor Version 0.42.3

Hello,

I have updated to the new version 0.42.3. When I start Cursor, the window opens. It takes a while until the individual subwindows/areas are displayed. Everything feels super slow with cursor.

When I click on a folder in the file/directory view and it expands, it takes a few seconds again.
Cursor is very slow. The previous versions did not cause any problems.

I have already uninstalled and reinstalled Cursor and resynchronised the codebase index. All these changes make no difference.

Above all, I had no problems before. What happened and is there a solution for this problem?

I am using a MacBook Air M3 with 24GB Ram.

Thanks and best Regards,
John

Hi John, I am sorry for the trouble. Are you on the latest macOS?

Hello petros,

yes, everything is up to date. I have now found the problem. Cursor had problems with my current chat history. After I opened a new chat, the speed of Cursor was back to normal. (start, close, use)…

As soon as I open the old chat again, everything is slow again. You could take a look at this when you get a chance. But that’s okay for me for now. I’ll continue in a new chat.

Thanks,
Johannes

Oh interesting. Thank you for sharing more details. Hold long is the old chat, I wonder. Maybe it’s not about how long it is, and more about what it contains? In any case I am glad you can at least work around this with a new chat.

I have the same problem with Windows 11. For the past couple of weeks, I have mostly been unable to open it or use the cursor. It would help if you fixed this quickly.
