VS Code does become slower for me on my MacBook M1. I typically don't restart the app unless I have to. After few days of usage, scrolling the code area becomes so slow (<20fps) that I have to restart the app. I haven't experienced such slowdown in other IDEs, such as Xcode or Qt Creator.
- xenospn 2y agoI wonder if there are any other native IDEs with the same level of functionality. I feel like electron is forcing me to compromise on performance in exchange for features.
- yurishimo 2y agoWhat projects do you typically work on? I would say VS code only excels at JavaScript or perhaps newer languages with a robust LSP. What sort of features do you find most important from VS Code?
- xenospn 2y agoI work on full stack typescript applications. The most important features for me would be responsiveness (I usually have multiple projects open simultaneously, and performance tends to degrade after a few days) and memory consumption.
