Jo, I did all that
Actually, I'm an old school command line guiy. So I am using vcbuild
and its plugging along very fast. In command line, I have all more
source code on a network drive, and I'm flying now.
IMO, VS2003/2005/2008 IDE don't impress me at all. Too slow. The call
home baloney and intellisense slowing you down, its a pita. On my
machine loading chrome.sln takes minutes and its a decent machine.
What probably happen here is that that when I updated with SP1, it put
back the feacp.dll file which I had deleted.
To completely turn off intellisense rename
\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\vcpackages
\feacp.dll
And now it is drastically improved.
