I have been using VS2010 Beta 1, 2, RC1 and now the final release for some time now. All the time I have experienced frequent hangs (not persistent, but way to often) when:

  • Saving a file

  • Switching between files in the tab-component above the editer

  • Creating new files

  • Open new files for edit (in the solution explorer)

The problem seems to be related to IO operations, but it is only in Visual Studio I experience this hanging-behavior. Running Process Monitor during the hanging, reveals that a lot is going on (about 20.000 events). I can provide examples from long list of recorded events by process monitor.

System:

  • OS: Windows XP SP3
  • IDE: Visual Studio 2010 Professional
  • SVN: AnkhSVN (almost newest release)

I really don't know what to look for among the events or what should cause this and I hope some of you do :)

How much memory do you have? – Randolph West Aug 12 '10 at 8:10
Same happens with my VS2008...hangs were it seems to write/read from the disk. It got a little bit better when I upgraded my PC from 1Gib to 2GiB RAM, but it's still there. I just think it's crappy coded. :( – Bobby Aug 12 '10 at 8:17
@Randolph: I haven't actually looked inside the laptop, but Windows says 3GB. – Chau Aug 12 '10 at 9:47
