I upgraded to Mac OS Mavericks and since then my PHPStorm caused problems. During typing inside the editor the CPU goes up to 400% and the typing lags. I didn't know what to do or what the reason is. So I reinstalled Mavericks. On a clean installation PHPStorm worked fine, without lags. I then put back all my data on my SSD (from backup and only personal data, no java or system binaries). I don't know if this is the reason, but PHPStorm now again lags if I type into the editor.

Have you experienced similar behaviour? Any suggestions what to look for? I have no idea.

This comes up in a Google search for “PHPStorm Mavericks”

The issue is that OSX Mavericks doesn’t come with Java 6 installed, which is what PHPStorm requires to run. To fix it, go here and install the official Java package for OSX. After install, PHP Storm will work again.

The solution appears to be installing or upgrading Java 6. Official Apple download is here.
