Taking longer than expected

Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

My composer 2 model today is having this issue “taking longer than expected” several times in a conversation (I only requested it to build my plan and do others small task as usual), which took very long time to wait for the solution.
My wifi connection at my workplace is completely normal.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open Cursor
  2. Open box chat and switch to Composer 2 model
  3. Ask Composer 2 to do that and meet this issue

Composer 2

Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

Hey, this is a known issue and a few users are seeing the same behavior.

Try this:

  1. Disable HTTP/2: open settings.json (Ctrl+Shift+P > Preferences: Open User Settings (JSON)) and add:

    "cursor.general.disableHttp2": true
    

    Then restart Cursor.

  2. Check your network: Cursor Settings > Network > Run Diagnostics. Please share a screenshot of the results here.

  3. Try in an empty folder: File > Open Folder > pick an empty directory, open chat, type “hello”. If that works, the issue might be your project index. In that case, try reindexing: Ctrl+Shift+P > Cursor: Resync Index.

Also, next time you see “Taking longer than expected”, copy the Request ID (chat menu in the top right > Copy Request ID) and share it here. This helps us investigate on the backend.
