Description:
Workbench 8.x constantly freezes during query execution, when connecting to a server or re-connecting, or just randomly at any time. Sometimes it freezes on the first query after startup.

Version 6 works much better than it, although it does freeze sometimes as well. 

I have experienced this on different operating systems: Windows 7/10, Linux (Ubuntu), macOS.

How to repeat:
1. Run Workbench
2. Execute a query

Suggested fix:
Use v6.3.10

Thank you for the bug report. Windows 7 it's an unsupported OS.
