Description

Type: Performance Issue

Issue troubleshooting has identified that the issue is with Visual Studio Code.

I can reproduce it by opening a 1000-2000 line file and being on battery saver mode. Turning off battery saver mode helps, but it's still slower than it should be. E.g. selection in this file around line 140 is especially slow.
On insiders (1.86.0-insider 279872b) it's still slow, but seems a bit faster than 1.85.1.
