Description

Every now and then IntelliSense becomes unresponsive. Sometimes I see messages like Getting definition or Updating InstelliSense but the process itself never finishes and I'm forced to reload VS Code.

I noticed that there is certain delay on this process while switching databases hosted in Azure. Here is what I see:

Some comments I found in multiple sources:

stop it freezing, on the frequent restarts we have to do stop it taking ages updating intellisense
Constantly has to reconnect to server and the Intellisense is very poor.
It takes an incredibly long time to get schema definitions for intellisense / autocompletion.
I don't know why but intellisense keeps dropping ever since these latest updates. very interesting.
IntelliSense does not work well with Database Projects (many wrong error messages).
Intellisense when connected to database sometimes lags and takes a while to update
intellisense is inconsistent

  1. Connect to an Azure / Local database
  2. Open query editor
  3. Check InstelliSense status in VS Code's status bar
