VS2010 is just damn slow and falls over on me at least 2-3 times a day which is not acceptable.
Non-aggressive suggestion: think you've got something screwy with your system, I've had VS Fall over on my 2-3 times in the last several years of heavy use. It doesn't have to be that unstable. Also, with an SSD and enough RAM, I don't feel like I'm ever waiting on VS anymore.
- elemeno 15y agoI'd second that. In the past five years (or at least since VS 2008), I can remember VS crashing on me maybe half a dozen times. That's with spending most of my time working on pretty large multi language projects. For context, I don't use any extensions other than (sometimes) ReSharper and Tortoise svn/git/hg.
- brunomlopes 15y agoMine doesn't crash on Web projects, but can't work for a couple of hours on a Windows Phone 7 project without it going boom. I think most of it works fine and dandy, but some parts can be quite sensitive.
- MartinCron 15y agoFair enough, I haven't worked on any Windows Phone 7 stuff yet, so it may be fatally brittle there.
- bwarp 15y agoI've dumped all extensions - I had R# and VisualSVN. The solution does have about 80,000 files though.
- wr1472 15y agoMaybe VS crashing is the symptom, and you should look for the cause around the fact that your solution has 80,000 files within it?
- georgieporgie 15y agoI do C++ work. VS2010 is so slow and crashes so often for me that I abandoned it (and, sadly, its limited C++0x support) for VS2008. This is on a Core2Duo, 8G RAM, a hybrid hard drive, and accelerated graphics. I was pretty happy with VS2008 until the other day, when I found that I can reliably crash it by opening a particular XML file. sigh
