Hi, I have seen this scenario a lot of times. And we are not using network for our projects. I have experienced the same pauses as Graham with MANY seconds where Idea is like frozen. We are several developers that have/had this problem. After i upgraded to build 540 and increased the memory I have not experienced the "synchronizing files" message since.
The way I got it to do the synchronizing was by simply using alt-tab to another program and then back again. I did not have to do anthing but alt-tab back and it started synchronizing.
