Description

I have tried using this plugin within Visual Studio Online and the new Github CodeSpaces. Typing with this plugin disabled, the editor is very responsive in the browser. When enabled on VSO/Codespaces the responsiveness of typing and auto-completion is not usable.

I originally thought it was due to being in Australia, then I thought it was Omnisharp, but it appears to be this plug in!

This issue is the only thing preventing me from adopting Code Spaces full time. I hope you can fix it! <3

Research direction

Start by reproducing the typing and auto-completion slowdown in Visual Studio Online and GitHub Codespaces with the plugin enabled and disabled. Profile the affected interactions to identify the plugin work responsible; done means browser-editor responsiveness is usable again in those environments.
