Looks like maybe related to the same behavior I just reported here over in JetBrain's tracker and the Material UI plugin repo:

I have also been experiencing this problem for quite some time now.

[mallowigi]

Are you using custom VM options?

[RavenHursT]

No.

[mallowigi]

I really have no clue. I thought this would be -Dsun.java2d.metal=false causing the issue but it doesn't seem like you have it.

Is the problem happening also on a Factory Defaults setup?

[RavenHursT]

What do you mean "a Factory Defaults setup"? 🤔

[mallowigi]

I mean if you change the config directory from the toolbox to use a clean directory without any settings or plugins, and install the plugin, do you still experience slowness?

[R-Bower]

This only seems to impact me when I have multiple instances of WebStorm open. What could be causing this?

[R-Bower]

This issue seems to be resolved in 2024.2 EAP. I'll keep testing and report back.

glad to hear

I'm encountering something similar in 2024.2 EAP...
