Slow in this case. I have a small project built for a mobile device. If I double click on the solution file it takes roughly 32 seconds before I see code appear on my screen for the first time. compared to vb6 where I can load a much larger project using the same method and start typing in less than 5 seconds.

Also I notice a lag everytime a property of any control is changed, like changing the name of a textbox or some such thing. I can not think of a single reason why this type of thing should not be instant on a system such as the one I am using.

The most annoying of all though is that when you make a change in the code window and go back to the design window it generates an error about 10-20% of the time and then has to redraw everthing. I think MS has a lot of garbage in there somewhere. I personally would never let a program out the door with quirks like this.


BTW after VS is loaded with my project open I am still showing 1.5 gigs of free ram so memory is not an issue.
