mysql workbench stops responding on syntax errors (no replies)

Hi

Ever since MySQL Workbench 8.0.17 and also in 8.0.18 workbench hands on "Not Responding" when working on a large query and there is a syntax error.

I find myself editing outside workbench just so i will not hang.

Also, if there are many small queries on the page and there is no ";" at the end of each one it will hang.

Anyone else experiencing this?
