Is it me or is the VS2003 IDE considerablly slower than the VS2002 IDE?

 

My cursor movements are verly slow and sluggish, sometimes with a delay only to see the cursor jump 10 characters at once.

 

Loading is slower as to are things like preview dataadapter, selecting the target dataset results in some delay before the tables appear in the data tables list, yet VS2002 was near instantaenious (excuse my crap spelling:) )

Mmm, wonder what goes on then?

 

I'm running it on a mobile p4 2.2 with 640RAM so the machine is well up to it??

OK any ideas on this?

 

I have the Windows Task Manager open viewing Performance.

 

When I open VS.NET and then my project the CPU usage jumps up to around the 70% mark and when the loading has finished drops down to about 1%.

 

Now if I type say 30 characters into the ide the CPU usage stays at around 1%. But as soon as I start using the backspace key to delete the characters the operation is jumpy, like pause then 5 to 10 characters a wiped at once then another pause. At this point the CPU usage is at 100%.

 

Is this correct? My IDE is painfully slow:(

 

Whilst opening IE and typing this the CPU usage hasn't gone above 2%??

I know this doesn't help you in your situation, but I have the same problem with 2002. The backspce thing and all.

 

I am running on a brand new laptop with a 2.66ghz P4 and 512mb of RAM.

 

I just thought I would let you know that I feel your pain :-\

I've logged this with MS as it is too slow to be acceptable. They are due to call be back today, so I'll let you know the out come.

 

It is only happening with VS nothing else. If I do the same test with the key strokes in IE, Word, Outlook, Access the Task Manager reports 1% of CPU Usage, but doing the same in VS reports 100%.

 

Somethings just ain't right here :(

I'll try this suggestion from MS and report back...

Problem is related to some performance issues, after upgrading from VS2002 to VS2003. I�ve researched about this issue, and in some cases VS user has resovled this issue simply by �repairing� VS2003 installation. This does not mean to uninstall / reinstall the product: from Control Panel \ Add/Remove program \ VS.NET 2003, after clicking on �Change/Remove� a window will appear, in which you can choose �Repair�. Please test this suggestion and let me know if it solves your performances problem.

Thanks Divil, any suggestions on the best way to do this? I can only presume that if I run the unintstall feature that would do it.

 

I have just finished installing it on another PC in my office and it works a treat, so it's either a dodgy install or the machine:(

OK.....:( groan still no joy.

 

I've now logged this with the laptop supplier as it works fine on the other PC and laptops but not mine even after a fresh install.

 

It is so slow I fall asleep just waiting for it to do anything:(
