Hello, are there any plans to use the LZO compression inside the snapcraft.yaml file in order to improve the startup speed of VS Code when installed as a Snap in Linux?

There is currently no feature work planned for the snap package.

What needs to be verified exactly?

Verification

Download our snap package and make sure it has lzo compression.

$ unsquashfs -s code-insider-x64-*.snap | grep Compression
Compression lzo

Hello. I don't know where to download the .snap file but I installed Visual Code Insiders from the Snapcraft store and I can confirm that the startup speed of the Insiders version is far faster than the non Insiders one. VS Code Insiders cold starts in a second while the non Insider version takes far longer.

Here's the latest snap package: https://az764295.vo.msecnd.net/insider/26a60dbecacc8bdacc06f7681ebe95398878a1cd/code-insider-x64-1617014928.snap

xxx@xxxxx:~/Descargas$ unsquashfs -s code-insider-x64-*.snap | grep Compression
Compression lzo

I can confirm that the package says it has lzo compression after running that command.
