Google Chrome Developer Toolkit is Slow

Question

I have been using Google Chrome\'s dev tool kit (element inspection, stack trace, javascript debugging, etc.) for some time with great success.

However, about two weeks

Answer 1

My transpiled file including source map is about 5MB. I have tried all of the solutions in this post and have only seen marginal improvement. I eventually gave up and uninstalled and reinstalled Chrome. Wish I did that right away, my source map load in the debugger went from about 15 seconds to 3.

Answer 2

My solution was to just delete a batch of projects that were running locally on my computer and were connected to IIS. Just removed folders/projects i don't use a lot or anymore. removed 25GB of data and now my dev toolbar works like charm!

Answer 3

This was solved by clearing my cache (temp files, cookies, etc) in Chrome. Not sure what the root cause was, but that fixed the problem.

Answer 4

I've had the same problem, tried the same solutions without luck, until I fired procmon and saw that Chrome was actually reading my entire Projects folder (which is several hundred thousand files worth).

There was a reference to that folder in the Workspace/Folders section in the dev tools Settings app. Removing the reference solved the problem.
