Maybe it's because I'm on an M1, but I've never noticed the start time on VS Code. Does it take a while to load up? I start it maybe once every week or two (restart after updates) and keep it open after that.
Maybe OP includes the startup of things like language servers in that time. In my experience VS code editor itself launches very quickly but that doesn't mean the full IDE is ready to be used. That said, I haven't experienced particularly long startup times either.

On my current gen Windows 11 box it takes 5-6 seconds to launch and 2-3 seconds to finish opening a new window, which to me is pretty jarring.
