Terminal of computer instance keeps loading and at the same time VS code cannot connect to it

Question

It happens quite often, sometimes after I just started the computer instance, and sometimes after I used it for a while. Then I have to restart the computer instance.
It happens not only to one but to different computer instances.
Please see the screenshots below:

1. terminal keeps loading
   
2. VS code cannot connect to the computer instance
   

In the end the webpage of Notebooks shows
"Terminal not available
Current terminal is encountering some issues, please switch compute or restart your current compute and retry."
with some message as below:

And VS codes just keep trying "Installing VS Code server on <computer instance> Retry - <some number>"

Could anyone please tell me what the problem is or solve this issue in the background? Thanks a lot!
