Because it's not an editor - it's a browser. I wish some day all those Electron-based "applications" would go away forever. Worst of all technology "inventions".

Just for what it’s worth, I’ve never had any lag, hanging, stuttering, etc. with Sublime Text 3. It’s very fast.

It is fast and I find myself going between the two. But intellisense and the language plugins that Microsoft makes are just so much better than what Sublime Text offers.

Language servers often run anywhere, and generally aren't using up all the ram.

For me (emacs + clangd), the language server slowly grows in memory usage until it's eaten up 32G and then gets OOM killed :(

Sounds like a bug.
Even today editor bloat is real. On my netbook VSCode is noticeably laggy sometimes, and it wouldn't take too much more to start paging out the editor! It amazes me that we still can't do instantly responsive editors. Even my dinky notebook still has a gigabyte of RAM and can do a billion integer operations a second. But VSCode can't show text instantly. I guess I'll stick with vi!
