@Noahkoole @cheesycod does the issue repro with fresh user data dir and extensions dir ? --user-data-dir /tmp/vscode --extensions-dir /tmp/vscode-ext

I running both VSCode stable and insiders on macOS Version 14.0 Beta (23A5257q) , haven’t been able to confirm the memory leak. Can you share some exact steps using the fresh user dir to help us repro the issue, thanks!
