Polyline interacting with feature lines FREEZE

I have been having the same problem over and over lately.  I am trying to draw a polyline and when the cursor gets close to a grading feature line, AutoCAD freezes.  It has happened in 2012 and 2014.  Does anyone else have this same problem, and any suggestions?

UPDATE

 

Same problem here. Found that the application would FREEZE every time the cursor passed over a certain entity. It turned out to be a 500+ segment [AECC_PARCEL_SEGMENT] - as soon as I removed this from the drawing - everything went back to normal.

Are running object snaps on? I've seen times when using running object snaps that a drawing will come to a crawl.

Not in my case. All of the status bar toggles were OFF. This particular AECC_PARCEL_SEGMENT resembled a feature line or polyline. I have no idea how it was created, and I don't think the author of the drawing does either. Oddly enough, if you got into selection mode inside of a command, you could select it. Just not hover over it with no command active.

Sounds to me like the auto highlight selection tool, or possibly the rollover tool tips (there are two different types, one found in AutoCAD options, and one found in the drawing ambient settings)
