Closed as not planned
Description
Type: Performance Issue
Behaviour
CPU usage should be minimal. Ideally less than 5%.
These pyenv-which and pyenv-exec processes are spawned as soon as VSCode is opened. Takes a few minutes before they start hitting 100%. They also never terminate when you completely close VSCode. Manually terminating the processes then restarting VSCode will do the same thing over again.
Steps to reproduce:
- Open VSCode
- Open a Python project or two
- Make sure the Python extension is enabled
- Wait about 5 minutes for your CPU to be pegged
- Kill VSCode, observe the
pyenv-execprocesses withms-python.vscode-pylancein the -I argument - Reopen VSCode and now more of the same processes are running, but CPU is completely pegged

Process explorer capturing the high CPU
Things tried
- Completely removed pyenv and deleted the ~/.pyenv directory.
- Tried an older version of pyenv (v2.3.21)
- Wiped out my .venv directories for my projects and reinstalled with poetry
- Disabled the Python extension in VSCode, resolves the issue, but then there's no Python support
- Disabled the Python Debugger, isort, and Ruff extensions in VSCode
- Disabled the Pylance extension, this looks like it resolves it, but after having VSCode open for about 5 minutes, htop shows pyenv-which is still hitting 100% at least every other second, but the process is no where to be found in the process explorer.
- Confirmed that pyenv-which pyenv-exec processes continue to spawn as long as VSCode is opened.
- Set the Python: Language Server setting to None, issue still happens
- This looks identical to this issue on python-environment-tools - High CPU usages python-environment-tools#134
