VSCode Dev Container Crashes (Error: spawn UNKNOWN) or Opens Extremely Slow

[KenHynes-pgmr]

The Dev Container takes a considerable amount of time to open from a WSL instance (5-10 minutes) or it crashes on startup with a "spawn: UNKNOWN" error. The Container can be opened from a WSL instance when opened and rebuilt without cache, but any other configuration leads to a crash. When it does open, it is extremely slow to build as stated before. I have run code --status to confirm that extensionHost is not utilizing a significant amount of memory (pictured below) and I have confirmed with Extension Bisect that the issue is with Microsoft's Dev Container extension. Also attached below is the CPU profile recording of the extension crash. I would greatly appreciate any assistance with this matter.
