Copilot should not block execution of code in VSCode Jupyter for dozens of seconds while doing nothing useful

Body

Consider this egregiously slow behavior (and I've sometimes seen things be 10x as slow):

The performance issues here seem like they might only show up when copilot is enabled.

I say that Copilot is doing nothing useful because there is effectively no CPU usage, as I note here.

This happens to me in 1.89 as well, even with Copilot disabled. After starting a new VSCode session, it tends to be fine, but after a while, like 20 minutes, it suddenly takes a long time to start executing the code, similar to your situation.

Am running into the same issue! My setup is using Remote - SSH with a linux remote, and after 20 minutes, I also run into cells starting to hang randomly. I do notice vscode having a spike in CPU usage when this happens though.
