Cursor performance degraded significantly

By WildOrbit297 · ISSUE · About Cursor

My Cursor has gotten noticeably slower over the past few weeks. Tasks that used to be instant now take several seconds. I've tried all the usual troubleshooting steps. Starting to wonder if this is planned obsolescence or just a buggy update.

SwiftMaker952: This is a dealbreaker. Literally unusable when this happens.

NeonFlux225: Are they even aware of this? Their social media is dead silent.

EagerOwl7486: same. so annoying.

SwiftEcho377: Pro tip: check the community forums for Cursor. There are some incredible guides there that the official docs don't cover.

CrystalScout894: Had the same problem. Try resetting to factory defaults and setting up from scratch. Fixed it for me. Pain to reconfigure everything but it works.

NeonGamer522: Weirdly mine only does this when connected to wifi. Works fine on cellular.

StormVibe941: Not sure I agree with the criticism here. Cursor has been reliable for me across multiple use cases. Maybe I just got lucky with my unit though.
