Is there a way I can increase allocated RAM on visual studio code? My computer has 128gb RAM but VSCode only uses about 1gb of it and as a result is incredibly slow.
I already tried looking up files.maxMemoryForLargeFilesMB but it seems like it is deprecated.

Granted the CSV file I have been parsing through is ~8 million lines long but VSCode should be able to allocate more than 1GB ram and utilize more than 0.1% of my CPU (intel i7) in order complete these processes faster.
