Hilarious. I can reproduce on my Dell Inspiron 15 5000 (core i7 running Windows 10) but it's not as pronounced as in the bug report. CPU usage bounces between 0.5% and 2.5% (which is obviously still ridiculous).

I almost want to swap back to using sublime out of protest but vscode's tighter git integration/workflow is hard to give up :(

Edit: I've always wondered why vscode couldn't be written in portable C/C++/Rust/D and then embed a V8 engine to power a javascript plugin API (a bit like sublime does with python)?
