如何停止索引intellij idea?(How can I stop indexing intellij idea?)

Without “excluding” folders, how can I stop Indexing intellij idea on start? It’s very very annoying that it starts indexing on startup without allowing you to, for example, debug a test case making you wait until indexing has finished.

解决方案：
You can stop synchronizing/indexing each time you switch to the IDEA and it’s quite useful when dealing with big projects and outside build process which triggers indexing.

Just disable checkbox：Appearance & Behavior -> System Settings -> Synchronize files on frame or editor tab activation.

Make sure you run indexing manually to update hints when needed through Synchronize menu (Cmd-Alt-Y on Mac).
