Mac OS lag when typing

My imac 27 began lags when i typing.

When you type - the text is printed with a delay, while some keys may be duplicated.

For example, I type the word car, at first nothing will be displayed, and after 2 seconds a carrrrr will appear.

I reread similar threads in Google, removed all unnecessary programs, checked the system monitor, sometimes some programs jump to 100% of the processor load, but this is very rare and in most cases the load is at around 30%

ps. Immediately I apologize for my English, this is not my native language and I translate using google translator

Delete this file & restart...


~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.postgresapp.Postgres2LoginHelper.plist


~ tilde indicates hidden Home Library.

Apple hid the Users' Library folders...


Method 1:

  1. From the Finder, select the Go menu at top of the screen, and choose Go to Folder.

In the window that opens, enter ~/Library/LaunchAgents, and click Go.

I have already entered safe mode, there are no input fields on which it would pop up

and the problem is too random to track it there

She may not bother you all day, but when you type a lot and often, she is confused


The problem is definitely not with the hardware, since everything works on Windows, I also tried reinstalling the system through safe mode, it does not help

I also noticed that the bug appears not only when typing, but when using any keyboard.

For example, if I do command + tab - windows can be scrolled 2-3 more times after I release the keys


This is not a keyboard bug, since I tried different bluetooth keyboards and the bug was repeated there.

On the original keyboard, the bug is repeated less often, I suspect that this is due to the fact that I type more slowly on it
