High CPU usage

After activating this extension CPU increases 40% to 50%, RAM also suffers a 500MB to 1GB increase.

I'm a WP Dev I do not use npm a lot, In many projects it doesn't even exist, still I get this result, so you may want to have that into consideration about the node_modules directory because it should something else that's adding into the mix of CPU leaking, maybe a option to scope which directories to index or to exclude on indexing for the caching may help? just and idea but I think it may help as it seems to be an issue that triggers on projects with a lot of files and folders.

Thx!

A good idea to borrow is here> https://stackoverflow.com/questions/38063144/can-you-pass-multiple-glob-strings-to-vscode-findfiles-api

Basically exclude files that you do not want in your search should suffice..

The recently released version adds a feature that is supposed to solve this issue.
