In my experience VSCode on Windows runs like dogshit. I blame Windows for that. VSCode on Linux runs like a dream. I can have four different sessions open and it still runs great (I haven’t tested more than that because I’ve never had a reason to).

I can confirm this has been my experience as well.

Anectdotally, the only people I know who say vscode is lightweight and snappy are devs that have have primarily used it, visual studio, jet brains, or some other common and bloated application.
