Electron process continues to consume large amounts of CPU resources #1346

Open sdr0x07b6 opened 2 years ago

Issue Type: Bug

Only recently and for a long time, the "Electron" process, apart from the "Code" process, has been constantly consuming around 38% CPU, only when VSCode is running.

Using the Extension bisect utility in VSCode, Settings Sync was identified; disabling Settings Sync improved the significant CPU consumption.

Extension version: 3.4.3 VS Code version: Code 1.67.0 (Universal) (57fd6d0195bb9b9d1b49f6da5db789060795de47, 2022-05-04T12:14:47.100Z) OS version: Darwin arm64 21.4.0 Restricted Mode: No

Not sure if related, but since I updated to 1.67.0 my terminal tab (View -> Terminal) switched to the output tab every few minutes where I could see that the extension uploaded my settings. So maybe it is in some kind of uploading loop that causes the high resource usage.

I had issues with Code Renderer proc eating up 60% of CPU on my. In my case, everything started to work fine after disabling the Settings Sync. I ran bisect to be sure it's the extension. Seems like there might be some upload loop that leads to high CPU usage. I can rerun some tests later.
