1 year ago Never experienced such issues myself. From performance perspective there is not much to improve and most probably such behavior is a side effect of Intellij platform itself.
In Intellij platform 2023.1 was introduced possibility to make Annotators DumbAware, which should run highlighting without waiting for indexing to finish. Which should probably resolve issue with reappearing highlighting. I'll work on that implementation and hopefully it will resolve discribed issue.

"Performance. I have a reasonably fast machine and very rarely have to wait for colour rendering, but occasionally the custom colours will simply vanish from the editor tabs I am using. Sometimes they reappear later on their own; other times not until I reload the file. This is mildly annoying - not a waste of my time or a blocker, but a quality aspect that I feel should be fixed before asking for money."
