Parsing of .skin files (or JSON's treated as so) causes extreme CPU usage about libgdxplugin HOT 4 CLOSED

UPDATE: just having this class open with LibGDX plugin enabled maxes out 1 to 2 cores on my CPU (20-40% usage) and doesn't go down!. After disabling the plugin and restarting, idle CPU usage goes back down to 0-1%.

I had a similar issue with the plugin maxing out one of my CPU cores when I press "Yes" on the prompt that says "This looks like a libGDX Skin. Should this file be handled like a Skin file instead of a regular JSON file?"

THANK YOU for your info! This is indeed the problem - I renamed my .skin to .json instead so it wouldn't treat it as a skin automatically, and sure enough this troublesome class is no longer taxing my CPU.

So, obviously there's an issue with .skin handling. At least I can use the inspections and gutter colors and such now though, so TY for the tip on the work-around!

This should be fixed now. Although the performance with skin files is still not great, at least for large ones. I'll need to see if I can improve that.
