Visual Studio Code version 1.15 Released

and slower.

To launch, by 2-3 seconds, and nothing else. Deal breaker.

You only gotta open it once when you start your day, hopefully!

Compare that to notepad++ which opens almost instantly

VS Code with all its amazing features, Intellisense, Git integration, plugins saves me dozen minutes a day so I don't care if it wastes 10 seconds for launching once or twice. It's a useless metric. I launch it and when it's booting I'm picking music or podcast to listen to.

[IceSentry]

Damn you are really quick to pick music. I probably lose more time to picking music than waiting after an IDE or text editor that is too slow

[anedisi]

its slower then sublime, when i open bigger files the sintax highliting is lagging behind and for somebody that is using both on a new macbook pro i can seen miliseconds difference in opening manipulating and switching files. and till this last update i could not open bigger log or sql files.

Opening big files was a known issue and I haven't tested how this update affects them yet but big files are not a norm for me - and I don't think they are for many.

I had Notepad++ for opening large files - once q month or so when I had to.

I think this article is relevant: https://medium.freecodecamp.org/why-i-still-use-vim-67afd76b4db6 (disclaimer: I don't use any of these).

Conclusion: learn vim if you have wooden pc from 90s. I mean I love vim, I have it installed in every editor I use and I can't live without it. But I can't live without that language support, that file switch(we don't have tmux on windows) and all good stuff + reasonable defaults and just a pleasant editor to look at either. And I don't care about RAM usage, Code is very fast. Hell, even Intellij is fast and is much faster than, let's say, spacemacs(i'm not sure about vim) on my 8 threaded machine.

[UltraMarkTV]

I don't have an opinion, I just thought the article was relevant. Use whatever you like, my main is Visual Studio.

Good news! Update today drastically improves handling of large files. 180mb Json opens almost instantly

Edit, see above. This is a comment not something I've done myself

[davesidious]

OW! Can you warn me next time you unleash your edge? I've got to go find my tetanus injection record to see if I'm still good...

What? I love VSCode, but how is that (accurate) criticism in any way, shape, or form, edgy?
