SLowdowns/hangs on OS X

[neufena]

I run Netbeans (for PHP) on both my work iMac and my personal Macbook Pro. Both are now running 10.10.

On my MBP Netbeans never has any issues. However on my work iMac I get frequent slowdowns and hangs. If I force quit and reopen I can carry on working. This has been happening on and off from OS X 10.8 onwards but is getting more and more annoying.

Does anyone have any tips to work out what the problem is? Theoretically the iMac is more powerful and has more RAM than the MBP but has a HDD rather than SSD.

I've done a general clean up of the iMac this morning so that might help a bit but any tips would be great.

Delete the userdir (http://wiki.netbeans.org/FaqWhatIsUserdir), restart
the IDE, and generate a thread dump
(http://wiki.netbeans.org/GenerateThreadDump) when the problem happens
again.
