When I tried VSCode a year ago, I found it to have an input lag, compared to sublime.

Given your comments, I just installed it right now to try it out again. I like the built in terminal & git integration. Code search performance is excellent (w/ code hosted in WSL) due to this new client/server model... and there was no input lag in the editing window.

The only lag I noticed was in CTRL-P selector, but that's a small compromise given the client/server model solves the real time waster.

I think I'm going to try it out over the next few weeks :)
