Too many extensions make vscode unstable, coz i had installed
"ES6 React/Redux/GraphQL/React-Native" & after couple of minuets vscode used about 2Gigs of ram for this so i had to uninstall it. Very painful to code without it. I don't know it's about More memory or what. but i have only 4Gigs of Ram 😞

You have a point, you can install too many extensions but I have not had any problems with VSCode using too much RAM. Working on my blog project at the moment and with a lot of processes running including the list of extensions in this post VSCode is using about 450MB of RAM. 4GB of RAM sounds a bit small for todays standard though.
