“Taking longer than expected” — how can this be resolved?

Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

In the latest version, after running for a short while, it starts showing “taking longer than expected.” This happens regardless of whether I use Auto mode or other model modes. I’ve also verified that my network is not the issue. This is seriously affecting my user experience. Is there any official solution for this problem?

Hey, this is a common issue. It’s usually related to how HTTP/2 streams get cut off at the network level, even if your network looks stable.

Try this: App Settings Ctrl+, or Cmd+, then search for HTTP/2, then enable Disable HTTP/2. Restart Cursor after that.

This fixes it in most cases. The main thread on this is here: Taking longer than expected Taking longer than expected

If that doesn’t help, please send:

  • Request ID three dots in the top right of the chat > Copy Request ID
  • Your Cursor version Help > About Cursor

Let me know how it goes.
