I have Bootstrap 3 and Bootstrap 3 Elements as the only extensions activated and I'm seeing Dreamweaver use about 50% of the CPU when working on a page with a Bootstrap container.I've turned off Automatic Updates under the Command ~ Bootstrap 3 Options, but this hasn't solved the problem.

Hello Steve,
It is normal for dreamweaver to use higher CPU when rendering elements on your page.

Do you honestly think I'd be wasting time posting a support topic if this was normal? I've been using Dreamweaver almost daily for the past 15 years and what I'm experiencing after installing the Bootstrap extensions is quite abnormal. I have a 6.6 performance rating on my Win7 x64 laptop after getting an SSD about a week ago and Dreamweaver is almost unusable.

Please do not dismiss this as "normal" and do some investigation. It's the least you could do for someone who has spent over $160 on these two extensions.

Here's a video of what happens in the CSS Panel every time something is clicked on inside DW. I have a file open that has Bootstrap 3 elements on it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=fmt4FrVKGOo

Nothing can be done in DW until the blinking stops and it can happen several times in succession.

Additionally, this is happening on two different machines. One is a Dell Precision laptop and another a custom gaming desktop. Both are running SSDs and Win7 x64 with DW CS 5.5.

Switching to CDN has seemed to relieve the issue at present.

EDIT: the CDN locations do not work for localhost testing. Is this normal?

Hello,
It seems the bootstrapcdn.com changed the link to the bootstrap css. You can manually change the path to:

//netdna.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.1.1/css/bootstrap.min.css

This will be fixed in the next update.
