Interesting, I'm generally quite sensitive to small delays when typing/seeing autocomplete, but this hasn't been much of an issue for me, even in VSCode. But maybe that's because I only enable extensions on a per-workspace basis.

Regarding build times, have you tried using esbuild (https://esbuild.github.io)? It's ridiculously fast.

vitejs uses it in their dev mode (https://vitejs.dev) if you wanna give it a shot without spending too much time fiddling with configuration.
