Visual Studio Code slow startup on Linux
Visual Studio Code slow startup on Linux
Recently I�ve been having a problem with Visual Studio Code, current version 1.5.2, on Linux. The program startup was too slow. I mean, the absurd of waiting over 40 minutes from the doubleclick until I see the window!
I discovered that there are two executables within the VSCode package: one at the root directory, and other inside �bin� subdir. The outer seems to be a wrapper to the inner, since I made a test and ran the inner executable alone... and bang, VSCode started in about 3 seconds � not an example of quick startup, but acceptable.
So I redirected my shortcut to point directly to the executable inside �bin� subdirectory. Whatever the outer executable does, it�s clearly buggy.
