Feature: Option to control polling time interval (when polling for code changes) squiggly line lag

I notice sometimes I'm editing Java code, the code linting lags behind. So assuming I type a line of code like so: String vscodeJava = null;, the squiggly lines indicating errors slowly go like this (you can see it happening slowly in front of your very eyes long after you typed the whole line out):

S                         // can't find type
St                        // can't find type
Str                       // can't find type
Stri                      // can't find type
Strin                     // can't find type
String                    // missing variable name
String                    // missing variable name
String v                  // missing semicolon
String vs                 // missing semicolon
String vsc                // missing semicolon
String vsco               // missing semicolon
String vscod              // missing semicolon
String vscode             // missing semicolon
String vscodeJ            // missing semicolon
String vscodeJa           // missing semicolon
String vscodeJav          // missing semicolon
String vscodeJava         // missing semicolon
String vscodeJava         // missing semicolon
String vscodeJava =       // missing value
String vscodeJava =       // missing value
String vscodeJava = n     // can't find symbol
String vscodeJava = nu    // can't find symbol
String vscodeJava = nul   // can't find symbol
String vscodeJava = null  // missing semicolon
String vscodeJava = null; // OK

While this could be a bug, I think a feature to control the polling interval would be helpful. So it only polls the code for changes every second or two seconds or so.
