I'm also experiencing this problem.

On my machine, it manifests as an incredibly high number of node.exe processes being spawned (for instant-markdown-d) and terminating, so many that the CPU quickly maxes out. Generally, this lasts for between 15 and 20 seconds, and occurs every few minutes.

Also, and possibly relatedly, even after closing the VS Code window, there is one node.exe (again instant-markdown-d) process left running.

the latest release is a complete rewrite should close this issue.
