VB .NET very slow in design

[rperreta]

I'm using VB .NET and it is extremely slow. I went through all the support
channels a few months back and since then have stopped development on the
project. We are losing money and I have developers idle. Whats the deal MS?
Everyone on the forums and all over the web are complaining about this why
has there not be a hotfix or something yet?

I have an application that is mid stream upgrade and the exe as well as the
dev environment is unbearably slow. Is there going to be any kind of work
around or hotfix that can be downloaded. Please advise...

I had a prolem where VS was configured to get and save project information
from a network drive. Make sure that everything is configured to ruhn
locally.

Are you using VS2003, VS2005?

If your using VS2005...
In speaking with MS a few days ago, they put out a hotfix KN 915038.

According to my email that MS sent... If your are developing a MS VB
solution that has large project in VS2005, if you are experiencing this
problem you can see: longer build times, slow response times to
debugging, symbolic renaming is slower, CPU utilization can increase up
to 50% in the renaming process, slow code editor times, slow response
times to IntelliSense, and higher Virtual memory consumption than other
versions of VS...

I also read on an MS forum that this particular bug would have been a
'ship-stopper', so if that's the problem your having... It also seems
to have some problems with the debugger, that's where I ran across
this.

Not sure that your experiencing the same problem, but they could be
related - I wasn't experiencing the slowness that the MS technician was
referring to, just crashing of the debugger.

I also notice this problem with VS 2005.

I have a project developed in VS 2003, and just migrated to VS 2005. I
found that the IDE is much and much slower than before, it takes long time to
open the object. At first, i guess this may be the problem of the converted
project, so I start another projest in VS 2005, it contain only 2 project
(windows appliaction & class library), and only about 10 objects (form +
class), but i got the same result of slow response.

I'm using a Intel D830 CPU with 2GB ram, which should good enough for
programming. So, I don't think this problem is due to the performance of my
workstatoin.

I'd like to know where i can find the hotfix KN 915038.

If your not going to answer my question and post a waste of time comment
about the rules save your internet bandwith for something else.

I am wondering what type of reply you expect. Your question is far too
general to get a specific answer.

It wasn't a comment about the rules; it was a piece of advice. Perhaps
I should have been more succinct:

Your post is addressed to Microsoft; you won't get a reply from
Microsoft here.

Microsoft is a bunch of drunk bastards that don't answer to anyone.
there should be a place where we can force MS to talk about something.

I've got a dozen questions for MS but they're bullies and they don't
answer to anyone.

mysql.

ms doesnt' give a shit about vs; they haven't even released a service
pack for ANY visual studio in friggin what 5 years?

ps - when you say dual you mean a xeon 2.8 not that hyperthreading BS
right??
what about OS you're not on XP home or anything ridiculous are you?

ps - i've had some performance gripes about the IDE; but nothing about
the EXE.
are you still using a bunch of COM crap?
do you run your sql databases locally? or do you have a db server?

[rperreta]

Thanks everyone for your support. This thread is not going anywhere and is
becoming a cluster of opinions instead of answers so I'm going to close it
out with a thank you for trying to help out and if I find some answers I will
post them up.

thanks

you see rperreta; the problem with us-- as clients of microsoft
products-- is that you dont have the backbone to stand up to microsoft.
you kids run away when things begin to sound anti-microsoft...

all i am claiming is that MS doesn't give a shit anymore

MS is run by a bunch of Excel idiots and C++ F&GS
they don't care about the middle market; they don't care about vb.

That is the root of the problem.
VB was the most popular language in the world; until about 5 years ago.

bunch of drunk retards driving the bus across the pond in redmond

and as soon as i start bitching you run away like it's 'taboo to talk
shit about ms' or something
grow some balls buddy and maybe microsoft won't trample all over you in
the future.
