Does Anyone Know Why VS Code Is Using So Much RAM

The eternal battle between developers and their RAM continues! This error message shows VS Code consuming a whopping 15GB of memory while Firefox has gone completely nuclear at 177GB. What's happening behind the scenes? VS Code is built on Electron, which essentially bundles an entire Chromium browser with your text editor. Each extension adds another layer of JavaScript execution, slowly transforming your lightweight code editor into a RAM-devouring monster. Meanwhile, Firefox has clearly transcended physical limitations by using more RAM than probably exists in the system. The irony is palpable - we're writing code to optimize memory usage while our tools are hoarding it like digital dragons.

Forbidden Love: VS Code Meets JetBrains

GASP! The tragic romance that could never be! Visual Studio Code and JetBrains IDEs - separated by subscription fees and keyboard shortcuts that would make Shakespeare weep! Their love is doomed from the start! He, a free-spirited VS Code boy with his extensions and open-source charm. She, a sophisticated JetBrains girl with her premium features and superior code completion. Their families (Microsoft and JetBrains) would NEVER approve! Developers around the world are forced to choose sides in this heart-wrenching IDE war. The RAM usage alone would destroy any computer brave enough to run them both simultaneously! A modern tragedy in silicon and syntax! 💔

The Text Editor Caste System

The text editor hierarchy is real and it's brutal . At the top, Vim/Emacs users look down on everyone with their terminal superiority complex. In the middle, VSCode/Spyder folks think they've found the perfect balance between power and sanity. And then there's the poor soul using whatever text editor came pre-installed with Ubuntu, probably Gedit or Nano, just trying to survive while everyone else judges their life choices. The coding elite have created their own caste system, and your editor choice reveals exactly where you belong in the programming social hierarchy. The deeper you go into customizing your .vimrc file, the more insufferable you become to everyone around you.

The duality of modern coding life. First panel: "OMG, GitHub Copilot is free in VS Code?!" *frantically puts on glasses to see clearly* Second panel: "Wait... my code is free for GitHub Copilot?" *realization sets in* Remember when we used to worry about other devs stealing our code? Now we're feeding the AI overlords our precious algorithms so they can regurgitate them to junior devs who'll get paid more than us. The circle of tech life, folks.

Visual Studio Code Has Opinions

When VS Code decides it's had enough of your spaghetti functions and infinite loops. That error message might be fake, but the feeling is painfully real. Every developer knows that moment when your editor might as well just say "I give up" instead of pointing out the actual syntax error on line 347. The only thing missing is VS Code slowly clapping while it watches you struggle through your 5th refactor attempt.

Session Cannot Have Ass

VS Code just delivered the most savage code review in history. When your editor straight-up terminates your session because your code quality is so bad, you know it's time to reconsider your life choices. The irony of Microsoft's premier IDE just giving up on you is peak developer humiliation. That moment when even your tools are like "nope, I refuse to participate in this atrocity." Just imagine explaining to your team lead: "I can't push my commit because VS Code deemed it unworthy of existence."

Sticker Pack Of The Day

Nothing says "I'm a developer with commitment issues" quite like this sticker pack. VSCode for when you want an editor that's somehow both lightweight and RAM-hungry. ReactJS because you enjoy rewriting your components every six months when the API changes. Rust for when you need to tell everyone at the coffee shop that you care about memory safety. PHP because legacy code never dies, it just smells that way. GitHub because where else would you store the 47 half-finished side projects you'll never complete? Ubuntu for when you want Linux without the street cred. JavaScript because you've accepted that type coercion is just life's way of keeping you humble. And finally, the Go gopher – the mascot that reminds you that simplicity is great until you need generics.

Just Two More Plugins

Vim Webdev Programming

The eternal addict's bargaining of every developer who claims their text editor will eventually rival VS Code after "just one more plugin." Neovim users are particularly guilty of this behavior—installing 47 plugins to get functionality VS Code ships with out of the box, then spending 3 days configuring it all in Lua just to feel superior while editing the same 5 files. The tears really sell the desperation.

When Copilot Goes Off The Rails

When you ask Copilot for help with a simple function and it decides to become an X-rated tutorial instead. This is what happens when AI trains on all of GitHub's repositories, including the questionable ones. That moment when you realize your pair programming partner has been spending way too much time on the wrong kind of "documentation." Just imagine explaining this code review to HR. And they say AI won't replace programmers? It's already replacing adult content creators!

The Dual Reality Of VS Code

The duality of VS Code existence in one perfect meme! The top text is normal, representing the clean, organized interface we show in screenshots. But flip your monitor upside down and you'll see the hidden truth—our actual code is a chaotic disaster that would make a compiler cry. The upside-down text perfectly captures that moment when your beautiful architecture dissolves into spaghetti code after three Red Bulls at 2 AM. It's like having your IDE in split-screen mode: presentation layer vs. reality layer.

The Sacred Text Editor Wars

The eternal duality of developer existence! The top panel shows a legendary sword labeled simply "Vi" while the bottom reveals its modern counterpart "Visual Studio Code." It's basically the coding equivalent of choosing between a medieval longsword and a lightsaber. For the uninitiated, Vi is the ancient text editor forged in the fires of 1976, requiring arcane keyboard incantations and mystical commands that separate coding wizards from mere mortals. Meanwhile, VS Code is the shiny, extension-laden Swiss Army knife that practically writes code for you while making coffee. The true comedy? Senior developers clutching both with equal reverence, ready to defend their editor choice to the death. The holy war continues, one keystroke at a time!

Congratulations, you were born at the perfect time to experience the thrilling adventure of... tracking bugs in Jira, sending desperate emails in Gmail, taking notes in Notion, coding in VS Code, chatting in Slack, and designing in Figma. Meanwhile, our ancestors got to ride horses into battle and our descendants will get cool mech suits. But hey, at least we have dark mode.
