Hah :P Have to say, there is nothing more frustrating than a slow compilation ..., not that I'm doing much compiling at all these days. > The way I see it the development of VS is partly about keeping the > developers on the VS team interested thus the move to rewrite it in WPF even > if it makes it slower. Exactly; that's a bit too an extreme case of "dogfooding". I mean lets not get obsessed about it; all VS needs to do is run fast and pop up hints. Maybe a few other things. I don't see why each iteration should result in a slower version. That said, I think it's significantly faster on Windows 7 than XP. But of course, I love XP, and have no reason to upgrade. -- silky http://www.programmingbranch.com/
