This problem occurs when I am trying to improve my answer in this question.
You can compile this code very well
documentclass[tikz]standalone
usetikzlibrarybending,decorations.text
begindocument
begintikzpicture
sffamily
node (a) at (-2,0) probability;
node[align=center] (b) at (2,0) percent\change;
draw[-latex,postaction=decorate,decoration=raise=1ex,text along path,text align=center,text=multiply by 100] (a) to[out=60,in=120] (b);
endtikzpicture
enddocument
but don't compile this code!

endtikzpicture
enddocument
I have been waiting for more than 200 seconds
Why? I just want to add a percent symbol (%)!
I think TikZ understood my % as %, but removing the throws many errors.
I even used siunitx, but got the same result.

@JouleV for that I'd have to dig through the internals of TikZ, which isn't something I feel like right now, sorry.

@Sebastiano I use VS Code. The LaTeX Workshop extension gives me a link to see the compilation process, which I don't use really often, but it is very useful in strange situations, like this situation.
