Android Question IDE freezes for a seconds now and again

[Arf]

I have been getting occasional IDE freezes for a few months now, with latest IDE and at least one older IDE version.
It only happens when I'm working in B4A. The cursor goes 'busy' and windows become unresponsive.
After 5 to 10 seconds, everything goes back to normal.

Any thoughts on what might be going on? Thanks.

did you already try to switch off the IDE option "Auto Backup"?

Are you using a laptop with a spinning rust disc? Normally Auto Backup is quite quick but if a laptop spins down the disc to save power you may be seeing the spin-up delay as the disc comes up to operating speed before it can be written to.

No, on a desktop with SSD. I have turned of autobackup now, I'll see if the issue disappears or not.
Thanks
