I’ve looked for some other articles on this problem and even tried some of the ideas in this thread; however, nothing has solved the issue yet. So, on to the issue.
Something happens when working in Visual Studio (usually C#) that causes the IDE to become a bit wonky when saving a file. I will be working along just fine for a while then at some point I notice that every time I save a file (Ctrl+S) it becomes very slow.
The behavior I notice is this; I hit save in some fashion (Ctrl+S, menu, etc…) and in the status bar I see the word Searching show up. It looks like it is scanning through all of the loaded namespaces for something, although I have no idea for what or why it is doing so. It causes a real hiccup in workflow since typically I will hit Ctrl+S often and keep typing.
I have been unable to track down what exactly causes this to start happening. It has happened in multiple project types (web, WPF, console).
Has anyone seen this behavior or have any suggestions?
I’ve had a problem similar to this happen before. Are you using an plugins like ReSharper or DevExpress?
