VS Code 1.63.2 is extremely slow

ghost commented 2 years ago

Issue Type: Performance Issue

VS Code lags on any action, eg typing deleting, switiching to another window or back to the VS code window, opening a menu, really anything. This behaviour is persistent accross application restarts, machine reboots as well as with all extensions disabled. This issue is noticeable for a couple of weeks but I cannot say what changed when it first appeared.

Please, help. Please, let me know if I can provide any sort of debug log for you.

Workaround: start VSCode with --disable-gpu.

joaopaulovilela commented 2 years ago

Source: https://code.visualstudio.com/updates/v1_40#_disable-gpu-acceleration

Open the Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P).
Run the Preferences: Configure Runtime Arguments command.
Add "disable-hardware-acceleration": true.
Restart VS Code.

vgjenks commented 2 years ago

Doesn't matter if I turn HA off per @joaopaulovilela recommendation above, or not - after 20 min. of use, VS Code is so brutally slow, it needs to be restarted. I'm on macOS 12.4 (latest as of this comment.) I'm on latest VSC 1.70.0. Please fix! It's nearly unusable for someone who spends 10-12 hours in it, everyday!

deepak1556 commented 2 years ago

@vgjenks can you provide the performance profile following the steps at https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/wiki/Performance-Issues#visual-studio-code-is-sluggish. Also, are you using the universal build of the application ?

Sure, here's what I get. I typically run a lot of Node/Express APIs and a couple of React front-ends through the debugger, much of the day. I get a few hours of good behavior at best, then have to shut it all down and reboot. This was not an issue until two updates ago (I can't provide those version numbers, sorry...no idea.)

I installed the binary that you'd find on the front page of the VS Code site, and have been doing all upgrades when prompted. No special builds or anything exotic going on there.

I re-enabled HA yesterday to test that on the latest. Makes no difference whether on or off - exact same pattern occurs.

Can you also perform the following steps when you observe the slow UI,

Toggle the developer tools from command palette Help > Toggle Developer Tools
Select 'Performance'. In there click the record button.
Scroll, type or any operation in the editor that demonstrates the slowness of the UI
Let it profile for 30 to 60 seconds, stop it.
Save the profile to a file and attach the file to your issue.

@deepak1556 Thanks for the follow-up. Here ya go.

deepak1556 commented 2 years ago

/cc @alexdima in the above profile, around 40s I see an unusual amount of _revalidateTokensNow when the user tries to find reference and the frame drops around that time might be related. Is this expected ?

deepak1556 commented 2 years ago

@vgjenks can you follow the steps below to try our experimental profile support which allows to isolate your user settings, this is to check if any of your existing setting has an impact on the above rendering.

Use latest insiders
Under settings.json "workbench.experimental.settingsProfiles.enabled": true
From the gear icon, create a new profile
You can always switch back to your old profile from the status bar
Under this new profile, check if the freeze happens.
If not, try importing setting from your previous profile and see which one has an impact.

This is more than I have time for right now...but it looks like the ticket was closed out anyhow?
