Language server doesn't stop after VS Code is closed

[yiannis-had]

Shouldn't the language server process automatically stop and free up memory once VS Code is not running anymore?

[pqn]

Thanks for your report. Did you see just the one process, or are there more?

[yiannis-had]

Hi, it seems like it's only that one that stays running

[yiannis-had]

What's the status of this issue @pqn ? Are there plans to fix it?

[yiannis-had]

Now showing up twice

[pqn]

At this point we have a potential solution, will post here when that gets implemented.

It happens on windows too. When i first saw it, it was peaking proccesing% and had 2 instances running.

[dembeck]

Every VSCode window that I open when the profile has Codeium installed, loads a new instance of the language server on Windows and Mac. The processes never exit, even after closing out of VSCode completely.

There is one exception to the above, where Codeium does exit the language server process. If you run Developer: Reload Window from the Command Palette in VSCode, when the window reloads it starts a new language server process for the just reloaded window, then after the new language server has started, it kills the old one for that window.

So the capability to kill the language process seems to already be in the code, it just is not being called when VSCode closes a window.

[pqn]

I've just released a pre-release version of the VS Code extension (1.3.66) intended to fix this issue. You can expect to see the processes take up to a minute to exit after VS Code is closed. Let me know if it works.

[yiannis-had]

Seems to work as expected for me now, nice work and thanks!

Some of the language server processes exit, but not all of them.

Screenshot

Showing that there are two orphan language server processes and that VSCode is not running.

Log Files

For reference, the approximate time that VSCode had fully exited is 2023-08-19 22:27:25.906 which I got from the last timestamp in the VS Code main.log file.

2023-08-19 22:27:25.906 [info] Extension host with pid 952 exited with code: 0, signal: unknown.

[pqn]

@dembeck can you try pre-release version 1.3.72 and let me know if that helps?

[pqn]

The fix will soon be deployed to the main extension and is in its final form in the latest pre-release extension (1.2.76). There is a new setting, codeium.aggressiveShutdown, which you can set to true to enable the fix. It will remain off by default due to risk of false shutdowns since this is overall a rare problem.

[palsega]

Listen guys I met this thing in my Android Studio installation. For your info I have a problem with start of Codeium Chat itself. AS comes to crash and language_server_windows_x64.exe is still in progress, two or more instances of it.
