Loading and closing of project slowed down

Type: Performance Issue

Since some updates ago
- every time i open a project it takes AGES to load extensions, discover github path, load language server etc. and i can't work in the meanwhile bc .py are not opening while vscode its performing those preliminary operation
- very often also slowed down closing like "It's taking longer to backup data" or something like that

projects are always the same. No new extensions installed since noticed this
