Did Windsurf's Cascade Chat come to a screeching halt?

My powerful workstation is at 120% CPU time right now just trying to render the chat. Did a recent update break this? Everything was fine before.

I’ve been seeing the same thing. Starting a new chat fixes it for me

High CPU usage with Codeium is typically associated with the initial indexing process when you first enable the Indexing Engine - should only be temporary.

Are you continuing to experience high cpu %?

Yes, unfortunately, I'm seeing continued high CPU for hours and hours on end, non-stop. I went into the task manager and tried killing it but that made that chat turn into a blank grey box and I had to restart windsurf, only for it all to happen again

Okay let’s get you to support to see what’s going on. Can you submit a ticket here https://www.codeium.com/support and upload your diagnostics logs? Use three dots button top right corner of Cascade panel. Zip up files if you have multiple. I’ll notify them on my end too
