VS Code is performing slow because of Chromium Technology

Open alizaincodes opened this issue 6 months ago • 0 comments

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: I don't think so extensions are making actual lag.

  • VS Code Version: 1.101.0
  • OS Version: Ubuntu 22.04 LTS OS: Linux x64 6.8.0-60-generic

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Just open the editor bro.

I am experiencing some lag while using VSCode. I think it is only due to Chromium technology. Chromium makes it slow. I have a suggestion that developers should use webkit2gtk for rendering vscode in linux. They should give it at least a try. Maybe this will make a huge performance boost on linux systems.
