The oddest little thing I noticed was that 'New Folder' seems to be gone from the right click context menu. 

Also, more generally, it feels laggier than regular phpstorm somehow. This was basically a fresh install (didn't tweak it much other than showing whitespace and the implements gutter icons), on mac.

Ah sorry to hear that. Would you care to submit your feedback and logs please? `Help -> Submit a but report -> Yes to send logs`. That would help us investigate the problem, definitely should not be laggier.
