code-settings-sync Very high CPU usage

This extension is causing the VSCode electron instance to use a lot of CPU. I have no more info.

I noticed that too. It was also very hard to find out what extension caused about 50% CPU usage even when idle/no project opened. VSCode profiling through code --status shown nothing 😬

VS Code has its own settings synchronization for quite a while, so I think it is suggested to uninstall the extension for good.

When you enable it will instantly jump to 50-100%

I can also confirm this, it only happens when this specific extension is enabled. Since VSCode already has this feature itself now, I've just uninstalled it. However, it would be nice if this bug could be fixed in this extension too.

I just did a vscode bisect, and pin down the incredible slowdown from my vscode is supposed to be this extension. Especially if I open multiple windows.
