Slow Extension Startup

It can take up to 30s for the extension to show when I start VS Code. Looking at the Debug trace, I see two hotspots.

1. This about a 22s gap in log entries here:

[06/05/26, 12:03:22.922] [dbtools-client  ] [INFO ] Server startup completed

  },
  "base_uri": "http://localhost:63751/"
}

2. There is a ~7s gap in log entries here:
