Hi;

Using VS2008 SP1, German Edition, I encounter regular hangs when pressing the right mouse button for VAX context menu.
VS at this point uses about 25% of CPU and no longer reacts.
When disabling VAX the problem disappears.

Any ideas whats going on here?
BTW: I'm using XPSP3, 32bit system.

The statusbar of VS 2008 shows that Intellisense is being updated:




TIA

Martin

IntelliSense is from VS and not VAX and is updating all the time in background. If you have big solutions you better should disable intellisense on VS2008, because it slows down your wohle machine and destroys your workflow.
There are several VB macros available that show how to disable VS IntelliSense. I noticed lot of cases where i change one file and IntelliSense updates >1000 files in background...

Hi;

Sounds feasible, but why is the error gone when deactivating VAX?

Can you please try disabling the IDE's intellisense parser and see what difference, if any, this makes? This FAQ entry explains how to do this:

I am not sure why disabling VA should stop this from happening if the slow down really is due to the IDE intellisense parser, as the status bar suggests. We should not be getting in the way or slowing down the parser, unless your system is hard drive limited, and the massive CPU spike suggests this is not a hard drive access problem.
