Editing can stall in new vscode versions

[plievone]

Two problems have appeared on latest vscode:

• If one makes a lot of edits when the literal editor is open, vscode can sometimes stall for seconds at a time. I can only guess that it is related to GC:ing some data structures, as the new vscode have changed the text buffer to a piece tree implementation, and it may have effects elsewhere on vscode, such as when replacing the whole literal each time.
• Decorations (such as syntax highlighting) appears later than previously, so editing the document causes flicker when the literal is replaced with the edited one all the time.

Previously these worked fine, so I guess I'll just wait and see if the situation improves.

My editor usually hangs after a few minutes of having the template literal subdocument open, and I'll need to force-restart it. Shame really because this is a great extension!

Thanks, I'll look into it a bit later. If it really hangs the editor, seems serious for sure. I will be out in the wilderness most of this month, so it may take until August that I can look into it properly.

No worries, VS Code saves all buffers so a crash doesn't result in data loss, it's just inconvenient.

Enjoy your wilderness adventure!
