ApplicationTickTimer freezes the Editor for a long time over and over again

Hi there,

I created an object editor to manipulate the meshes of my game objects.
Currently I am facing a huge problem: The editor freezes when I edit one of my objects. This does not happen every time I edit an object, but it happens very, very often. This is extremely annoying because when editing a level, I have to perform hundreds of these operations just to create one object and the editor sometimes freezes for 30 seonds or more.

I tried to find the reason for this but the profiler gives me ApplicationTickTimer as the source of the problem and shows several hundred errors, for which I can't find a method to track them down. The console does not log anything.


How is this possible and what can I do?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Unity version: 2018.2.2f1

 

So nothing on this issue?
Currently I am even facing freezes for several minutes... Can't figure out, what's going on

 

I'll second this issue. Have you submitted a bug report on it yet?

I figured out that it was ApplicationTickTimer causing the stalling for me when I looked at the editor log and found this snippet:

Can't say our issues are identical, but the freezes happen randomly for me without any specific action taking place. I doubt it's my computer, since nothing else has this problem or stalls at all.

 

Case #1097249 submission.

I want to also add that I get the stuttering/freezing issues with a blank, brand new project. The editor becomes complete unresponsive for a few seconds, then when it becomes responsive again, there's between 5 seconds and a few minutes of time before it stops responding again.

you can see where even Unity isn't sure what is going on.
