This extension consumes a lot of CPU

[harish-aka-shivi]

Type: Bug

This extension consumes a lot of CPU even when the vscode is idle. It generally takes up 150% or more of the CPU all the time

Steps to reproduce:

• Open Macbook Activity monitor.
• When the vscode is opened and this extension is enabled, the CPU used by vscode is consistently high
• It debugged it using the extension bisect

Extension version: 3.4.3 VS Code version: Code 1.74.2 (Universal) (e8a3071ea4344d9d48ef8a4df2c097372b0c5161, 2022-12-20T10:26:09.430Z) OS version: Darwin arm64 21.0.1 Modes: Sandboxed: No

Same, disabling it made VSCode much faster
