Please consider Electron 25 it has much better performance and stability

Please consider Electron 25 it has much better performance and stability

And of course, no backward compatibility. As for stability, how can one say the first couple releases of a major version are stable? Electron 25.0.0 is barely 2 weeks old!
I said it many times before... stop asking for bleeding edge software, there are and always will be many bugs in them. Do you like your VSCode having all kinds of weird issues? I don't.
I think even Electron 24 is too early to jump on - it was first released in April.

Edit: downvote away, be my guest :-)

fisforfaheem · 2023-06-09T21:41:03Z

but using an ond chromium engine feels not safe... Also Vscode needs to focus on improving performance.

Native node fetch! Very keen on this upgrade. It'll make a lot of my WASM-related code mutch quicker.

PS: I plan to turn my wasm into a data uri and stream it using fetch in 9 months time. To give that VS Code verison time to percolate :)

tjx666 · 2023-06-12T22:22:12Z

@lorand-horvath there are two months to test and fix

fisforfaheem · 2023-06-13T06:19:33Z

Hope we see latest chromium soon! VSCODE insiders atleast should have latest version, given it's name [image: Mailtrack] <https://mailtrack.io?utm_source=gmail&utm_medium=signature&utm_campaign=signaturevirality11&> Sender notified by Mailtrack <https://mailtrack.io?utm_source=gmail&utm_medium=signature&utm_campaign=signaturevirality11&> 06/13/23, 11:18:34 AM

@deepak1556 will be released in July interation?

fisforfaheem · 2023-07-10T08:53:01Z

I agree that using blazing edge electron may get issues. But at least VSCode Insiders should have Electron version 23 or 24 to benefit. I'm not talking about the stable version of VSCode, but the Insider version.

@fisforfaheem That's not how it works; this is the 3rd time you are asking to have Electron 24 only in Insiders.
Insiders is max 1 month ahead of official VSCode, you can verify that yourself. It's basically the beta testing phase.
There's also VSCode Exploration, which is the alpha development phase.

fisforfaheem · 2023-07-10T09:00:11Z

Ok, thanks for the clarification. Any idea how to find that exploration builds easily

@fisforfaheem You can find VSCode Exploration version 1.75 here:
#166265 (comment)
Install it (it has the orange logo, you'll see), then start and Check for Updates which will get you the latest version 1.81-exploration (alpha).

deepak1556 · 2023-07-11T03:56:24Z

@tjx666 not likely, this iteration will be focused on resolving the two Node.js blockers

Get server executables based on Node v18 to be GLIBC >= 2.17 compatible
Adopt DNS result order changes

@deepak1556 any performance improved after upgrade electron v25? I think node18 maybe improve some

@tjx666 yes we have seen nice improvements to render process launch times across all platforms, most noticeable on windows with ~80ms drop, there are also some minor script execution time improvements ~20-30ms. However on macOS we lost some time from start till app.isReady which requires investigation. But overall the score is better than Electron 22.

shannon · 2023-09-10T18:40:22Z

Just FYI, the following bug is present in Electron 25 and therefore present in the latest release of VS Code: electron/electron#38790

I realize there are probably other bugs in Electron 25 that would be present in VS Code but I ran into this one and I had to figure out if it was VS Code or electron that was the issue.

lorand-horvath · 2023-09-14T09:36:26Z

I will now venture and say (without trying to blame anyone) that the update to Electron 25 was rushed in VSCode 1.82, as I've correctly predicted would happen #184021 (comment) - that strange bugs were going to creep in.
Here's just a couple of them, but I'm sure there are many others (lack of time to track everything going on):
#190437
electron/electron#38790

I'd really like to have an Electron 22 branch build of VSCode still available and maintained, it was much more stable, no serious issues as far as I can see. And it was also working on Windows 7 without problems. But that's too much to ask, I guess.

shannon · 2023-09-17T21:03:30Z

My comment about the bug from Electron 25 being in VS Code was not to disparage the work to do the upgrade or suggest that it should not have been done. I merely wanted to point it out in case anyone else ran into it. It is a very strange bug but not show stopping. Having said that, I think this just reiterates that the work to keep VS Code inline with Electron upgrades (including any bug fixes) is important and should be as streamlined as possible.

Other than this bug, being able to now run and test my WebGPU based code directly inside VS Code has been invaluable.
