Visual Studio and VS code perform great on my machine. 

Tools -> Options contains Visual Studio options.   There's also an Extension drop down menu.

Perhaps you need to shutdown other applications running on your machine.  Use Task Manager to see what's taking up resources.

Hi SaeedP,

As far as I think,firstly,I suggest you could open your Task Manager and check what affect the visual studio perfoemance.

And then,if you disable features of visual studio,you could:

1.Disable automatic file restore

2.Configure debugging options

3.Disable tools and extensions

4.Other tools and extensions

5.Force a garbage collection

More details,you could refer to below article:

i had terrible trouble with vs code when i moved over to it, all my problems with omnisharp where due to a configuration issue, partly because of differences between 32bit and 64 bit stuff on my machine, and some enviroment variables. once i got them sorted its been plain sailing since, but finding what they were and finding the fixes were a pain.
