I'm using the Version 61.0.3163.79 and I have the same issue that this post talks about.

With some searches I found out that the problem was in the user that I was using. What I tried was to enter int google chrome as guest and the devtools became faster again.

So what I did was:

1. Check out if debugging using the guest user is faster as it should be.
2. Logout from the account.
3. Clean all cache associated to google chrome.
4. Restart the PC (but i think closing the browser is enough)
5. Login again in your account.

I hope this could help other people with same problem.

[EDIT:]

I found out that after some time (weeks) the google chrome dev tools will get slower again. So I tried the following solution and it worked:

1. Open the dev tools
2. Go to the Sources tab.
3. Cleaned all watched variables, breakpoints, DOM breakpoint and Event Listeners breakpoint.

[SECOND EDIT:]

After some weeks, the issue came again. What I did was installing the google canary Version 64.0.3249.2 canary (64-bit) and my problems vanished.

For who's that doesn't know what is canary, please check this link.
