Slow reponse to scroll and typing

Issue Type: Performance Issue

It is not slow to start-up, it is slow to do anything in the text editor (scroll, find, type, etc). For example, when scrolling, the screen is unable to keep up with the mouse wheel and it will keep scrolling for a while after I stop the mouse wheel. I disabled the extensions I installed lately, and also reduced the amount of files in the workspace.

Is there any way to set this flag by default in a link?

• Right Click on the vscode applicaiton icon
• Select properties
• Under shortcut tab
• Set the Target to code.exe --disable-renderer-accessibility

Apart from testing the exploration builds, can you also check if launching code --disable-renderer-accessibility fixes the issue.
