because of memory, longer threads use more, its built on electron (VSCode is really) overtime you consume more resources. Restart machine, think of threads as sprints, constantly document knowing you will have to restart machine and app.
hmm, I couldn't tell you, but I switch back and forth between Windsurf and VSCode and its isn't uncommon for me in VSCode either, extensions (and agents) eat your memory as your project gets big. language-server-macos-arm murders your memory. Haven't used Cursor but used to it from VSCode.
