I'm sure you can come up with a scenario where input does slow down (eg, in huge complex files), but speaking as someone with experience speedrunning action games which require frame-perfect (60Hz) tricks, I can't detect any noticeable lag between hitting a key and a glyph appearing on the screen in VS Code.

If something's slowing it down, it's probably an autcomplete feature which can be configured to trigger less frequently.

The only thing that keeps me using it are tools that decided only to support VSCode.

I'm not a "kid", I've been coding for 40+ years, and I don't find VS Code to be slow. YMMV.
