It is but it's slower than Vim. I've tried it. It is fast, for Electron app. Try opening huge text or log file in it.

VS Code < Vim < Vi < ed

I don't get the text editor speed as an issue ever. I used Vim (I use Vim mode in all my editors) not because it was faster on the CPU it was because it made my work faster. Today VS Code makes me work fast. I seriously have a 8 year old Dell crappy corporate computer for work and there is no noticeable slow down on either RStudio or VS Code.
