java.util.regex.Pattern class sluggishness #4239

Description

Type: Performance Issue

Everytime I reference the java.util.regex.Pattern class in VSCode, it takes a solid 2 something seconds for the intellisense to catch up.

So for example, if I do:

Pattern., the tooltip that shows all the available methods takes a while to actually load in.

I don't have this issue with any other classes.
