This is the real issue with WSL. I also tried to move to Windows with WSL but any heavy IO operations (npm install for example) that would take < 1 minute natively took 10 minutes on WSL. I thought I could just use virtual machines within Windows instead, but every configuration I tried had short comings and I just couldn't get a productive work environment up and running so I've switched back to Mac.
