We've just released v2.31.2024061114, which ships with a re-architected language server for improved performance and resource usage (terraform-ls#1667). The language server will now start up much faster and use fewer resources, especially on larger workspaces.

In VS Code, you can opt in to the extension preview:

If you have the time, please give it a try and let us know how it works for you. We have tested this with workspaces of different sizes, but still expect some bugs due to the wide variety of configurations. Your feedback is greatly appreciated.
