FormatOnSave takes a long time

See original GitHub issue

Summary

Frequently, when I save a file with FormatOnSave option on, it takes forever to finish saving. I have to quit VS Code and restart. Then, save happens instantaneously again. After a while, the issue re-appears. The identical issue to this one: https://github.com/prettier/prettier-vscode/issues/1253. Not at all clear why that issue is closed – clearly people are having this problem.

The issue you referenced was closed because I can’t reproduce the bug. If someone can provide a valid repro I’m happy to try to fix it, but that bug nor this one has enough info. This extension has millions of monthly users. Clearly not everyone is having this issue. Please provide repro step and I’ll investigate.
