VS 2003 IDE Slowing down

[Jack Addington]

I have a C# app that isn't terribly big but the entire IDE seems to be
getting slower and slower. Windows take longer to open and close. The
actually application and compile time is still extremely quick.

Any ideas?

thx

When does the system gets slow?

Did you try to see the processes running and detected that was the IDE the
one responsible?
Sometimes my IDE kind of freeze when I resize the project explorer windows,
it retuns after a couple of minutes.
Also when I'm loading a project that contains a Crystal Report it does it
slow, cause it's loading the CRystal Report engine, the same happen with
Rational XDE

Other than that I have no idea what is happening to you

cheers,

When I develop locally the IDE works at a nice brisk rate even with a
single class at 10-11k lines. When I work a remote project via a \\
interface the IDE goes to sleep as I am typing, often 10-15 characters
behind what I was typing in. When I work remotely with fp extensions,
it's 1/2 way between a nice crisp response and dead as nails response.

So, are you working on a remote project or is this a local project?

It is most noticeable when I'm first opening the application and then when
I'm opening / closing forms or visual objects. I have a rock solid system /
video card so its not that.

Hi,

What about system memory?

What if you close all the windows ( of the project ) and close/open the
project again, it's faster that way?

Sometimes the forms take it time to load when you have too many controls in
them

I cannot think of something else :(
cheers,

Is the project in source control? Did it used to be?
(just a hunch)

Try to check if there is adware in your system. Microsoft spyware beta
version is nice, I use it.
I recently found that if I use third party program such as resharper, it
slows down my IDE.
