Glad that was useful.
Do you know which plugin it was?
If there's reason to believe it may be one particular plugin, it would
be enormously helpful to the author if you could run a quick test with
all of your plugins present except that one and see if the problem goes
away. If the problem recurs after you've put it back you've found the
culprit.
No one wants to ship plugins that create mystifying time sinks for its
users. A quick note about incompatibility with a particular version will
be very helpful for the plugin author.
Given that v8 is for the most part purely a superset of capabilities
with few (if any) truly deprecated tokens, incompatibilities unique to
the current version are rare. But if the plugin is doing something
unusual, such as relying on undocumented calls internal to the IDE,
those are adventurous decisions a plugin author will anticipate may need
revision from time to time, and your bug report to the plugin author
will no doubt be most welcome.
