Cursor Performance Tuning

Overview

This skill helps optimize Cursor IDE performance. It covers performance diagnostics, editor optimization settings, extension management, AI feature tuning, and indexing configuration to ensure a fast and responsive development experience.

Prerequisites

  • Cursor IDE installed
  • Access to Cursor settings
  • System monitoring tools available
  • Understanding of extensions and processes

Instructions

  1. Use Process Explorer to identify bottlenecks
  2. Disable visual features for performance gains
  3. Configure file watcher exclusions
  4. Audit and disable heavy extensions
  5. Optimize AI feature settings
  6. Set up aggressive .cursorignore

Output

  • Improved editor performance
  • Reduced CPU and memory usage
  • Faster AI completions
  • Optimized indexing configuration
