I believe I’m having this same issue. For me, any window/dialog box that VS Code has to open hangs the program for around 10 seconds. It will eventually open the window, but working in that window is very slow. This also happens for any yes/no dialog boxes, such as saving files. I’m currently running:

Ubuntu 20.04

I just installed insiders, and it appears to be resolved.

Unfortunately no, because it doesn’t crash, it just hangs there. Gui thread works – I can click into windows, and it draws them, but nothing on the interface is active. Any other way I can investigate it?
