Out of memory exceptions in VS2010 with Silverlight 4

2010-07-22 Thread tonywr
Hi all, It's Friday, so I thought I would let you know about one issue in our team. Basically, we are running 32-bit Windows XP. The machines have anywhere between 2 and 4GB RAM. Everyone in the team gets System Out Of Memory Exceptions. When that happens, you have wasted the compile time,

Yeah, I have this problem too. It's damn annoying. Have you tried just doing a rebuild of the solution instead of restarting VS though? That (often) works for me. Still, it would be better that it didn't exist as a problem. Chris On 23 July 2010 10:20, ton...@tpg.com.au wrote: Hi all,

Lol, I don't get it why people get stuck with XP in 32b edition and all it's limitations. It's an OS designed 14 years ago!!! 14!! And released 12 years ago. Do any of your guys drive a car 14 years old? Next thing you should do to yourself: - remove source control and do manual merges: cost

I might just point out, I'm running Windows 7 and get the errors. Kinda agree on your perspective for keeping developers productive though :). Chris On 23 July 2010 10:52, Corneliu Tusnea corneliu.tus...@readify.net wrote: Lol, I don't get it why people get stuck with XP in 32b edition and

Yea, I try that. We even clean it first, but it seems you are luckier than us as it rarely works for us! Could have something to do with all the extra stuff we have going on in our systems. Having Outlook open doesn't help. Having SQL Management Studio open also doesn't help. We have both

Actually compile time and time to run takes a while anyway, so there is plenty of time to do other activities. T. On Fri, Jul 23rd, 2010 at 10:26 AM, Steven Nagy steven.n...@readify.net wrote: Yes but everyone's Facebook status will have been updated during that outage period so its not a

Hi Tony, This sounds like the same issue we are having on our major project (a WPF/CAB project). Our Client solution has 66 project files in the solution, and our middle tier has 77 project files. We are running on Windows XP 32bit SP3. And yes, Visual Studio (2008) starts falling apart

I have the same problem on my current client site with WPF / VS2008 / XP 32bit. About 5+ times a day I get an out of memory error when compiling. Only happens after editing in xaml text editor, it has never happened after editing c# code. I have to restart VS and clean the solution. If I

Tony, To help with Carl's recommandations you can try to use this VS plugin: Solution Load Manager: http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/66350dbe-ed01-4120-bea2-5564eff7b0b2 It allows you to select which projects to load when the solution starts and delay load the ones you don't
