Same here. Since recently it just started to hang when saving:

Thank you both for reporting this!

This issue may be related to this one: hashicorp/terraform-ls#1857, so downgrading to the previous extension version may be a workaround for now.

To confirm a theory, are you by any chance using the AWS provider?

[mb-lakera]

Thank you for your response, I'll give it a try

are you by any chance using the AWS provider?

Yes, I do

Thanks for the suggestion. I have downgraded to version 2.32.3 for now. I'll observe if it helps.

I use GCP provider.

Update: Extension 2.32.3 is noticeably better. It reduced the indefinite loading spinner to around 7~8 seconds (not always?) for me.

[mb-lakera]

Same here, so far 2.32.3 works fine. It does take sometimes quite a few seconds, but that is not a problem in comparison to the hanging 2.33.0

Update: I tried installing the https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform-ls/ by myself and set the "terraform.languageServer.path": "/opt/homebrew/bin/terraform-ls" in the vscode extension settings. It's performing much better.

Nah it's still hit and miss.

[dbanck]

We have released a new version of vscode-terraform: 2.34.1, which includes many bug fixes and some performance improvements (hashicorp/hcl-lang#426 being the most significant).
The update should show up automatically in VS Code.

Please let us know if it solves (or improves) the issues you were experiencing. I tried the new version on an older Celeron box with some sample configurations and it felt similar to 2.32.3.

Hi @dbanck , thanks for the update. It's working much better compared to previous versions.

I've noticed that some resources' Go to Definition is not working when they're updated. Could this be related to the recent changes? Otherwise, great improvement!

[dbanck]

Thanks for the quick feedback!

Do you mind opening a new issue for the Go to Definition problem you are seeing? This will allow us to dig into this separately.
