VSCode on an Xubuntu 16 VM (VMWare Workstation on Windows 8.1) on a 5th gen i5 with lots of RAM seems very slow to draw. Even the menus are visibly slow. I was disappointed as I thought this might be a quick and easy way to get vim bindings + Rust editing.
Maximized, it's even worse - typing is very slow. But that's apparently some sort of bug.

- steveklabnik 10y agoI use this setup on a Windows machine, not a VM. Works very fine here.
