Intellij Idea Community Constantly Freezes and Maven projects stuck on reading pom.xml for a very long time

I have just installed Intellij Idea Community on my work computer (virtual machine) and it constantly freezes for more than a minute at times every few minutes. Additionally, when I can finally do some work and load, and when I open a maven project, the reading pom.xml stage can take 20-30 minutes. This also happens anytime I make changes to my pom.xml file.

I read a bit about the vm options but couldn't understand enough of it to make any changes.

I fixed the maven problem by setting a proxy in intellij. This did not occur to me at first as none of the other IDEs that we use have proxies set.

As for the constant freezing, a majority of it was caused due to the maven scans and since I dont have that problem anymore, I don't need to worry too much about the freezes either

Check your intellij memory settings. Increase it if it is low.

Go to Help -> click on Change Memory Settings

In Popup increase the memory.

Click Save and Restart
