Everytime I open a golang file and start editing, (even a file with just the following in)
package models
import "github.com/gofrs/uuid"
type Client struct {
ID uuid.UUID `db:"id"`
Name string `db:"name"`
}
... emacs will slow down to a crawl, eventually freezing my entire PC. If I'm lucky I can quickly open a terminal and do xkill, most of the time I have to hard-reset my PC.
Right now, this is only happening with Go files, and I'm forced to use VSCode just to get work and deadlines done.

EDIT/UPDATE
It looks like flycheck might be the culprit, whenever it tries to check the file it consumes all resources on my machine. Sometimes it will "pause" itself, where I then have a brief moment to quickly kill the window.
I also disabled flycheck for go files only, and then I'm able to edit everything as normal. But then I miss out on the checking and formatting features.
