Description

I'm having an issue with VS Code + Continue. I have a 13th-generation Intel Core i7 processor, 23 GB of RAM, and an SSD, but I keep seeing this warning pop up frequently.

Sometimes VS Code also crashes. When it does, I think memory usage goes up to around 22–23 GB.

I previously had VS Code installed via Snap, but I recently downloaded and installed the .deb package from the official website. I think this has improved things a little.

Is anyone else experiencing the same issue?

The fact that VS Code shows the “Not Responding” message doesn't necessarily mean it's caused by high resource usage on my computer. I have a feeling something else is going on.
