thanks, I tried it out, it’s very helpful.

As I suspected the functionality works - it just runs into a timeout (by default 2s) because the metadata file it needs to go to is really large. Unfortunately this timeout at the moment is not configurable.

What you can do, is you can enable decompilation support (you can find instructions here https://www.strathweb.com/2020/05/decompilation-support-in-omnisharp-and-c-extension-for-vs-code/). This has a higher timeout and should easily complete. As an added bonus you will get better quality behavior - instead of seeing just metadata, you will see decompiled code.

To avoid these problems for the future, we will increase or add an option to increase the go to definition timeout.

@filipw I have timed it, it was always 20secs up to 30 secs. I also changed RoslynExtensionsOptions.DocumentAnalysisTimeoutMs (if this is even the correct variable), without any changes Am I able to change the timeout?

Also, here is the log:
