About this issue

--enable-features=Vulkan also works for me and has better performance than --disable-gpu

This should be addressed once we update to Electron version that contains fix for https://github.com/electron/electron/issues/32436

On Fedora 35, updating to the latest version of VS Code fixed the problem for me, so it seems like as of 1.63.2 this problem has been fixed.

It would be End of April

@larsks the issue you are facing has been addressed in current insiders via https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/133593 and the fix will be available in upcoming 1.61 stable release.

--enable-features=Vulkan also works for me and has better performance than --disable-gpu

This works and gets great performance, far better than the ozone workaround, thanks!
