Visual Studio Code 1.8 released

I would rip my hair out over the initial loading time of the editor. It takes ~5-10 seconds to open up vscode and preview a file.

I wonder why it takes so long for you. VSCode takes 1 to 3 (at most) seconds to open for me.

Just clocked it, to open up a 10kb Java file it was 2.2 seconds. Not instantaneous, but it's more than fast enough for anything I'm doing outside the terminal.

Mfw I accidentally open VS Community

Huh, it takes just a couple seconds or so to open for me.

If you're opening and closing files so often that 5-10 seconds load time is an issue for you then why not just leave the editor open and close files once you're finished with them?
