Copilot: Out of memory

Bug

Body

The setup works when editing local files, but fails when editing remote files. An error "copilot: out of memory" appears at the bottom-right as soon as I try to type anything to prompt copilot.

I have also tried the Copilot pre-release version. It does not work either.
It works for other remote servers so I am not sure what the problem is.
I don't think the server is running out of memory -- there are >400GB of free memory and I can easily occupy >10GB of memory with numpy running on the same server.

It still works for other types of files like .json or .yaml but not .py.

Same here

[hkchengrex]

I find this solution works: https://qiita.com/bestvimmer_JP/items/2baa7d9f991cf92be99f

Adding the following to settings.json

    "remote.extensionKind": {
        "GitHub.copilot": ["ui"],
      }

I believe the underlying cause remains unsolved but this is a working temporary solution for me.
