Visual studio high memory usage

[arbazkiraak]

It happens today when I suddenly noticed processes started getting slow on the computer. so I checked task manager to see what causes.

I have waited a couple of minutes to see if it changes by keeping VS code in idle state & then my computer dumps the memory in BSOD(Blue screen of Death).

After rebooting, I tried same way to reproduce the state and within 20~30 minutes, it is upto 5GB.

0 909 4452 c:\Users\arbaz\.vscode\extensions\ms-python.python-2018.12.1\languageServer.0.1.72\Microsoft.Python.LanguageServer.exe

Please let me know what are the possible reasons causing this and how do I fix it.
