PhpStorm freeze, slow indexing, loading folders

I'm using PhpStorm and recently it started to go extremely slow. I've got 32GM RAM, for PhpStorm I gave him 15GB - still not helped.

I've got folders excluded, I've tried to look for solution on official forums but answers from IntelliJ are literally useless.

Also whenever I restart PhpStorm it starts indexing again.. ( All of these issues showed with installation with last update. )

EDIT It shows up that it was due to last version update, I've just downgraded back to last 2019 and everything works.

This worked for me, I hope it works for you too.

open Help | Edit Custom Properties add new properties:

sun.awt.windows.useCommonItemDialog=true
ide.win.file.chooser.native=true

restart the IDE

on Windows:

File -> settings -> Directories

rightclick on folders and mark desired as excluded of indexing.

I did that for bootstrap, vendor(ohhh, heavy one), .idea (probably),storage->framework->views(cache, annoys when searching) and node_modules(heavy one). Reboot.

Now it works sufficiently faster as well as it loads .

first of all you need to install phpstan package

composer require phpstan/phpstan --dev

and then exclude vendor folder from phpstorm

I am having the same experience. There seems to be a significant slowdown in the processing/indexing of PHAR files within vendor.
