Some more questions:

- Do you have a lot of editor windows open when the freezes are happening? Does closing all but the one editor window have an effect on the problem?
- Is there any length of time that you're able to use the IDE after a fresh start before you notice the issue appearing?

Windows? No. Tabs per instance in its single window? Yeah, quite a few, I'd say around 30-50 open file tabs at any given time.

I started the day by closing every instance, invalidating Rider's caches, and opening three solutions (medium to large size), one of which contains ~600 tests. Things felt smooth for a while, but it didn't take long before it became somewhat sluggish, freezing every 5 minutes or so for about 3–5 seconds. I might be biased, but whenever the freezes started, I'd close every tab in the instance I was working in. It felt like it helped — the freezes would still occur, but they seemed to take a bit longer to come back.

Iit really depends and feels somewhat random. Today it took about 1–2 hours before the freezing returned.

Would you be interested in trying the build below to see if it helps with the problem? This build contains a few optimisations to reduce memory traffic, particularly around editor window integration. It's a blind stab, but worth trying.

NCrunch_Rider_5.21.0.7.7z

When I try to install from disk I get:
"Plugin 'NCrunch' (version '5.21.0.7') is not compatible with the current version of the IDE, because it requires build 261.21525 or newer but the current build is RD-253.31033.136"

Ahh, sorry, I should have mentioned this. I've moved the Rider plugin up to the newer version, because it's set to drop soon. To try this build, you'll need to use the 2026.1 EAP build. This should be a free download from the JB site.

I also have this since the "later" Rider Versions (not EAP). Sometimes Rider freezes when opening the Solution and the NCrunch Test Runner Tool Windows is active. Or when i switch to it.
(had the latest NCrunch Forum Version installed). Was good a while, but godd worse in the last weeks. Maybe an Rider Update was not good for NCrunch.

Will upgrade die EAP and give this Version a try.
