Taking longer than expected on Cursor version 3.0.13

Hi @mohitjain !

First of all, thank you for your help on this issue! Appreciate it! :slight_smile:

I’d like to jump in here as well as I’m experiencing the same issue and thought I’ll provide my information as well, maybe it helps with the debugging.

Cursor IDE:

Version: 3.1.15 (user setup)

Here one request where I experienced the issue first: 37a98d94-9bd6-40dc-a995-8b8844bc26b6

I then also tested in a brand new project (just two small python files) to see if the project size is just an issue and it was faster than in the bigger project but still way slower than usual, here the request ID for that test: ded2aa3e-1e38-46a5-9eb7-722e2e22a375

In all cases I used Sonnet 4.6. I then also tried Composer 2 (fast) which was equally slow.

I can also confirm that the workaround mentioned above, using Opus 4.6 (high), did work for me too. It’s indeed faster.

Is the state.vscdb issue you mentioned earlier still related to this or is it a different one?
Mine is a whopping 2.7GB and I assume that’s not great either?

Also: Do you have some documentation somewhere for completely resetting all history, cache, etc.?
I don’t mind loosing all my chats and settings. I just want the IDE and LLM to run smoothly. :slight_smile:

Thank you!

@brales Thank you for the updated commend! :slight_smile:

Did that work for you in PowerShell or only cmd? The latter should work but PowerShell doesn’t seem to expand %APPDATA% correctly. At least in my case. But it’s Windows, who knows what’s happening here … lol

In PowerShell it worked like this for me:

sqlite3 "$env:APPDATA\Cursor\User\globalStorage\state.vscdb" "PRAGMA journal_mode=DELETE; BEGIN IMMEDIATE; DELETE FROM cursorDiskKV WHERE key LIKE 'agentKv:%'; DELETE FROM cursorDiskKV WHERE key LIKE 'bubbleId:%'; DELETE FROM cursorDiskKV WHERE key LIKE 'checkpointId:%'; COMMIT; VACUUM;"
