The more things change, the more they stay the same. I used to use VS Code on some very large C projects with 16GB of RAM, and my machine would grind to a halt while intellisense was indexing.
- GrayShade 9mo agoThe indexer was probably clangd, not Code itself.
- aragonite 9mo agoIME more likely cpptools (which comes with vscode) than clangd. Relevant: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43788332 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43788332
- ryukoposting 9mo agoThat's correct. Clangd doesn't churn nearly as hard as cpptools, but it's also not nearly as good as cpptools.
