Weekly updates are too frequent

Type: <b>Performance Issue</b> I appreciate that the VS Code team is working at a breakneck pace, but so is my team. Updates take time. I just lost an hour because VS Code kept crashing because some components auto-updated to 1.115 before I was able to update the core. I haven't updated the core because it seems I constantly have an agent or compilation or test suite or such running in one of VS Code's windows. Finally I had to discard what I was working on to complete the upgrade so the crashes would stop. If I wanted weekly updates to my CORE development tool, I would sign up for insider. My time is valuable, my development environment is valuable, please limit the instability of releases to once a month.
