WSL2 disk access from the Windows side is very slow. It's the reciprocal problem of WSL1.
WSL2 Linux apps now get proper performance now but if your IDE is on the Windows side, access time to project files on native Linux partition is terrible.
- LaGrange 5y ago...actually e.g. VS Code has a really great split backend, so you can actually have the frontend "properly" on Windows anyway, and yet still use WSL2. My own case was something different: annoyingly configured automated browser tests with Cypress. Just running them inside WSL and letting that start a browser on the distro itself was the most comfortable way to debug these.
