There are numerous components inside of Komodo that can become a performance hindrance, especially on older computing machines. Luckily, there are a number of features and components that can be turned off. Here are a few of these most common performance sensitive components that can be disabled:

• Code Intelligence autocomplete and calltips (fires from editor key press events)
• Syntax checking, aka linting (fires after code changes)
• Disable wordwrap, as this can become intensive for files with long lines
• Disable folding, this intensifies the code parsing process
• Ensure there are no mixed line endings (will show up as green squiggles)
• If using Komodo IDE SCC integration, ensure the "Do recursive status checks" preference is turned off

Feel free to add others as you come across them.

Cheers,
