When you work with VSC for a long time, it will consume a lot of RAM, hindering your work process and making your computer sluggish. 
Here's how you can address that:
- Open svcode
 
- Press the keyboard shortcut 
Command + Shift + Dand selectPreferences: Open user settings (JSON) 
3.Add extra setting in settings.json
{
    "files.exclude": {
        "**/.git": true,
        "**/.svn": true,
        "**/.hg": true,
        "**/CVS": true,
        "**/.DS_Store": true,
        "**/tmp": true,
        "**/node_modules": true,
        "**/bower_components": true,
        "**/dist": true
    },
    "files.watcherExclude": {
        "**/.git/objects/**": true,
        "**/.git/subtree-cache/**": true,
        "**/node_modules/**": true,
        "**/tmp/**": true,
        "**/bower_components/**": true,
        "**/dist/**": true
    }
}
- Restart the vs code
 
It reduces from 1.2 GB to 100 MB of RAM. Sounds great!
