Unresponsive extension

[bartvanerp]

Hi folks!

I was using the extension last week and it was a pleasure! Now this week I noticed that the extension did not load anymore. In VSCode it seems to never stop loading, both in the bottom bar there is a loading circle and in the DVC tab it also keeps on loading. I checked the Developer Tools and there I get the message INFO UNRESPONSIVE extension host: starting to profile NOW. It only happens with the DVC extension enabled, however, with DVC activated it also blocks the other extensions, such as the built-in git tree.

I checked my local DVC installation and all seems fine. Updated everything to the latest versions and command line interface also seems to behave correctly. Any ideas what could cause this?

As a first step to see what is happening here, could you please share this:

Hi @bartvanerp,

Can you please run the following commands in your terminal and report how long they take to run:

dvc exp show --show-json
dvc data status --granular --unchanged --json
dvc plots diff -o <TEMP_DIR> --split --show-json (substitute <TEMP_DIR> for a path on your machine.

Also, please provide the output of dvc version.

Thanks,

[bartvanerp]

Hi @mattseddon, thanks for the reply. I ran the following commands (I changed --show-json to --json as the former was not supported) and received the following timings

vc exp show --json                             # 0.800 seconds
dvc data status --granular --unchanged --json  # 0.478 seconds
dvc plots diff -o <TEMP_DIR> --split --json    # 0.669 seconds

My DVC version currently is

>> dvc --version
3.58.0

Not sure whether it matters, but I am running everything on the M3 Pro chip.

[mattseddon]

Is there anything useful shown in the developer tools:

(try filtering by dvc if there is a lot in there)

[bartvanerp]

I get the following log in the developer tools panel

It did complain about a file located at /Users/bartvanerp/.vscode/extensions/applicationinsights.json. It only seemed to complain when enabling DVC. For other extensions it did not throw such a warning. The file requested was not present on my machine. Creating an empty ({}) file in the respective location got rid of the warning, but did not resolve the unresponsiveness issue.

[mattseddon]

Can you try disabling telemetry by following this guide, restart VS Code and let me know what happens?

[bartvanerp]

Hi @mattseddon, apologies for the late response but I have been traveling over the past couple of days.

I disabled telemetry and updated to the latest version, but still the issue unfortunately persists.

[mattseddon]

Can you give me some more information?

• How many params/metrics are in your experiments table and how many experiments?
• How many files are tracked in the project?
• How many plots do you have?
