Description
Type: Performance Issue
Suddenly I have this bug in vscode where it keeps loading with the message "loading intellisense status"
If i hover over a value, it does not show any types info. or other intellisense info.
I also see a process in my activity monitor called "Code Helper (plugin) that take almost or more than 100% all the time
Things I've already tried to resolve this issue:
- start vscode with all extensions disabled
- choose typescript version equal to wokspace typescript version
- restart TS server
- restart vscode
- restart macbook
- deleted all caching / node_modules and did a new npm install
It also for this project, this issue. HOw to solve or debug to know what is causing this process to have that high cpu load
