Missing include path caused cpptools-srv to grow to 5.5G. Only 400MB needed after missing path was added.

Type: LanguageService

Intellisense is not working in a certain file. I don't know the cause yet so I am not able to make a simple repro.

I see in the logging

Failed to read response from server: 20
Resetting IntelliSense server: C:\SOMEFILE.CPP

In the extension host logging, I see

[2020-11-02 15:37:49.425] [exthost] [error] onWillSaveTextDocument-listener from extension 'ms-vscode.cpptools' threw ERROR
[2020-11-02 15:37:49.425] [exthost] [error] Error: timeout
	at Timeout._onTimeout (c:\Program Files\Microsoft VS Code\resources\app\out\vs\workbench\services\extensions\node\extensionHostProcess.js:638:581)
	at listOnTimeout (internal/timers.js:531:17)
	at processTimers (internal/timers.js:475:7)

But I get this message when opening most files so I dont think this is the cause.

Is there a way that I can get more info/logging on what is causing it to fail?

Inizia dal malfunzionamento di IntelliSense segnalato in SOMEFILE.CPP e dai log dell’extension host di cpptools, inclusi i messaggi di risposta non riuscita e di timeout. Riproduci il reset del server o la crescita della memoria, se possibile, quindi usa logging aggiuntivo per identificare il percorso di inclusione mancante o l’operazione del servizio linguistico che fallisce. Il lavoro è completato quando la causa è isolata e viene identificato un fix mirato o un percorso diagnostico.
