Re: Slow debugging using .NET 2003

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance




So as of now, we could say that
"Try to turn off Advanced text services (Regional and Language options -
Languages - Details - Advanced). " fixed the issue.
This seems to be working.

Lets monitor your system for some more time to see if the issue reoccurs.
Thank You.

Hi Ramanathan,

1) I didn’t try to disable the add-ins and this behavior exist before I
installed some plug-ins. VSE Debug is indispensable to me since I use a lot
of STL containers and .NET 2003 has poor STL debugging capabilities. Also, I
don’t know what means “devenv.exe /safemode /resetskippkgs”;
2) Can’t do that. My applications use drivers from National Instruments. If
didn’t load them I can’t debug my applications;
3) I tried several times deleting the .ncb file and rebuilding the solution.
Most of the time it didn’t help;
4) I didn’t find this environment variable in my system;
5) It happen when I use Debug->Start and begun to step (F10) through the code;
6) Never tried this;
7) Not in all my solutions. I mostly do my work in 3 medium/large (more or
less 100,000 lines of code and about 6 DLLs) solutions. In small solutions I
didn’t have this problem;
8) I don’t have any other system to try to reproduce.

I tried the suggestion in the previous post. I don’t understand why, but
since then, my system didn’t get slow anymore. But I need more time to make
sure that this fix the problem because this behavior does not occurs in a
deterministic way.

Hi,

I am very much interested in solving your issue.

1) Since you mentioned you are using some Addins, did you tried to disable
the addins and check - devenv.exe /safemode /resetskippkgs
2) Can you restart your machine in safe mode and try and check whether you
still get the same behaviour - to isolate third party problems
3) Is this happening because of intellisense, what happens if you delete
your .ncb file and try again, does it improves anyway?
4) Could be possible because of downloading symbols? can you delete
_NT_SYMBOL_PATH from your environment variables list and try?
5) when you say debugging, does this happens when you do Debug->Start
Debugging or does this also happens when you do Ctrl+F5 start without debug
and then do attach_to_process and then trying to debug?
6) Similarly what happens when you run the exe from the explorer and then
you attach the debugger?
7) Is this happening with all your projects / solutions or just with some of
them? if so what are they?
8) If it reproduces does this with only this system or also with other
systems as well..

HTH,
Ram

Hi,

Many times while debugging a medium/large VC++ project using VS .NET 2003
my
computer became very slow. Not just VS IDE, but the whole machine, even
task
manager takes several minutes (more than 5 minutes) to get focus and
respond
to mouse clicks. Rebuilding the project or changing breakpoints lines
sometimes help.
I already have installed VS service pack (development environment version
is
7.1.6030) which didn't help. Also, I have the following add-ins installed:
- InstallShield Express Editor;
- Comment Reflower;
- Project Line Counter;
- Resource ID Organizer;
- VSE Debug.

Thanks.
