Looks like I’ve got that on my machine, and I built Emacs —with-json this time. Performance is still better but it’s still stuttery.

I guess it’s related to either the json parsing happening on the main thread and/or the LSP servers using company-capf which I think is a synchronous backend?

It seems like coc.nvim, lsp bridge, kak-lsp, and other editor solution’s i’ve come across all opt to use sidecar processes that manage lsp. Perhaps Elisp isn’t the right tool for that backend processing.

This can be spun off into another thread. I haven't tried it yet but the feedback has been excellent.

Oh what a great idea! I hope this can get mainlined someday(perhaps behind a config option) since Eglot should benefit from that approach as well!
