 VB.Net Editor keystrokes lag/slow to respond (VS.NET 2003)

I'm having a speed problem with VS.NET 2003 (release) that wasn't happening
in the beta 2003. In the VB editor, characters, when typed, don't show until
about 1/2 second after I typed them. This is very annoying and slow (and I'm
already a slow typist). This was not the case with the beta version and my
system has not changed between the time I uninstalled the beta and I
installed the release. This is in a project/solution with 1 simple form only
as well as any others.

Anybody have any ideas.

Thanks,
Mike

Do you have any third party Addin's?

I have noticed that some addins causes 2003 to be slower in the IDE.

Hi Fredrik,

No, I have no addins other than the MSDN Library (if that's considered an
addin).

I have found that if I close some other programs (particularly Outlook) it
speeds up some but still lags the keystroke enough to be annoying. When it's
at its best, some keys work fine while others lag...the letters, numbers and
tab keys are reasonably fast but the space bar, enter and backspace keys lag
a lot. Very strange.

I uninstalled the beta 2003 and then installed the downloaded release and
noticed some lag immediately. The lag time seems to fluctuate.

Mike

What is your OS? If you are running WinXP, try running Msconfig and load
minimun services and restart windows and see if it works fine. Then add other
services and apps one by one to find out what cuases this behavior. If you are
on Win2000 machine, you can copy the Executable msconfig.exe from a winXP
machine. For testing, you can use Selective Startup and uncheck all the check
options in the msconfig utility.

Hope this helps!

Thanks for the info Bharat.

I tried this with the Diagnostic setting (only RPC is started) and it was
better but still lagged. I did find that it was caused by installing newer
NVidia drivers a while back. These newer drivers did not seem to affect the
final beta (at least not as noticeably). After I had uninstalled NVidia
drivers 6.1.xxx and re-installed the NVidia drivers 5.13.xxx the problems
went away.

Thanks again,
Mike

Just a bit more detail on the NVidia drivers that I used:
6.13.xxx worked with final beta but not well with release of 2003.
5.13.xxx and 6.14.xxx (just tried this latest one) worked fine with release.

I didn't see any other relevant threads and wanted to expand on this topic
with a problem we're having...

We're seeing similar 'lag time' in the VB editor (not the C# editor,
though - it appears to be VB-specific), but we have definitely tied the
problem to the presence of a strong name file attribute, ex:

    <Assembly: AssemblyKeyFile("C:\XXXX.snk")>

When this line is present in our AssemblyInfo.vb file, the editor simply
crawls, taking 5-10 seconds to respond every time the enter key is pressed.
Simply commenting out the attribute line immediately causes the editing
problem to disappear. We can reproduce this on multiple machines, just by
creating a new empty solution, adding a module and then toggling the
attribute line on and off.

Has anyone else seen this behavior ? Given the necessity of strong names in
certain circumstances, having them cause this sort of productivity hit would
seem to be a major bug. We originally saw this with VS.NET 2002, but
recently put on the release version of VS.NET 2003 and are still seeing the
same problem, unfortunately.

Should also add that the problem disappears even with the presence of the
attribute line IF we disconnect our network cable. It's as if the attribute
is causing every change in the editor to do a network trip, but to where ?
And why ?

Any help would be appreciated...

TIA,

Is this a real example of your keyfile location, looks local to the system
its on.

Where is the keyfile located or other files getting referenced from? On a
network share?

Well, the keyfile name is bogus, but the location is correct; this is a
development machine with the keyfile currently in the root of C:...

What 'other files' specifically are you asking about ? As I said in the last
post, I can reproduce this problem starting with a clean WinForms solution
and just adding a form and code behind that form.

I've assumed that something having to do with network roundtrips was causing
this since we first started experiencing it, but haven't been able to figure
out what would be attempting the roundtrtips, or why, especially during an
editor session...?

Even with all the documentation in this thread (and others) about changing
display drivers to fix the slowness in the editor, that can't apply here,
since we don't have the slowness problem in projects that don't have the
AssemblyKeyFile attribute, and the machines in question don't have NVidia
drivers (they're Intel).

Hi, Bob,
  I apologize for the inconvenience this problem has caused you.  I've
created a bug to track this issue; one of my guys is investigating right
now, in fact.  He may get in touch with you by e-mail to get more details
if necessary.  (Stamping these sorts of perf issues out once and for all is
a major goal for us, so we'd really like to mail this -- any additional
info appreciated.)  I'll respond back to this thread as soon as we've
learned anything.

Thanks,

Just an update -- currently, we're not able to repro the problem specific
to this case, but one of my devs (Ernest) is following up with Bob via
e-mail to check a few possibilities and one potential workaround.  More
info as I get it...

Hi, Matt -

I tried to follow-up with you off-group on this but the email was returned
as undeliverable; I've never heard from Ernest and we still have no idea
what to do about this issue. I'd love to get the potential workaround you
mention and see if it helps us out... ?

Thanks,

 VB.Net Editor keystrokes lag/slow to respond (VS.NET 2003)
Hi,
I encountered the same problem recently.
I have a class library project which always uses a key file. It worked
fine before. however, this problem started to occur a few days ago
after I made a bunch of changes to the project. I don't know what
change caused it. It seems that commenting out the KeyFile line
immediately cures the slowness. I'd love to see a solution here, since
this is a really annoying issue.
Thanks for the discussion here which gave me a lead.
Steven

 VB.Net Editor keystrokes lag/slow to respond (VS.NET 2003)
Hi, Steven -

Just wanted to clarify - did your project always have a key file ? And are
you saying that even with a key file you were *not* experiencing any editor
slowdown until the changes you made recently ?

If so, this is different from our experience here, since as I've said
before, we can take a new, blank solution and add a module to it and just
the presence or absence of the key file attribute zaps the editor's speed.

If you have had a project with a key file that was not experiencing the
editing slowdown, that's interesting to know, as it would shoot a big hole
in our theory of what's going on here. Please let us know...

Thanks,
Bob S.
