yup the LSP is bad, there is a new lsp being rewritten based on JET.jl a static code analyzer , this should be faster than the old lsp which kind of runs by loading all the modules into a julia instance and queries it for symbols and docs ( im not 100% sure but i think thats how it works)
Exactly ! The new LSP is getting ready https://github.com/aviatesk/JETLS.jl/ with one of the compiler devs working hard on it. I tried it with VSCode, Zed and Helix and it's more than fine already.
I hope julia developper tools will one day match the best of what other programming languages have to offer.
