First of all, it is NOT below issue:

Fixed in Android Studio 4.2
IDE freezes on macOS Big Sur: Android Studio 4.1 might freeze when you open a dialog.

I'm using a version higher than 4.2 and even if I change the system settings about "Prefer Tabs" to "never", the freeze issue still exists.

The IDE freezes like more than 5 times a day, mostly happens when it is building, and the project is using Jetpack Compose, have to CMD+OPTION+ESC to kill the process and restart.

More info about the environment:

Looks like latest Preview version is working fine, at least it doesn't freeze.

Android Studio Dolphin | 2021.3.1 Canary 3

Update on 13/Apr/2022:

Just tried Android Studio Dolphin (2021.3.1) Canary 8

It has new features regarding logcat but still freezes when debugging, so I do NOT recommend upgrading to that version.
