Option to disable extensions when on battery power & re-enable when plugged in #197475

Closed abhishek-nigam closed 9 months ago

abhishek-nigam commented 10 months ago

I have a ton of extensions installed in VS Code that I find very useful. e.g. I have Codeium AI extension running & trying to generate code completions as I code, Sonarlint that runs linting & suggests fixes But, with them comes their CPU memory footprint. I am more concerned about the CPU footprint. Hence, I would like to suggest a feature through which we can create 'profiles' in VS code that specify what extensions are enabled in VS code when plugged in/and when on battery power.

Thanks
