Visual Studio Lag When Typing
-
I'm using VS2022. This also happens in 2019. While typing there are frequent lags from the time a key is pressed to when you see the results. This only seems to happen in VS. Other Windows apps are not doing this. It could be an extension. Is there a way to confirm that? Anyone else seeing this?
If it's not broken, fix it until it is. Everything makes sense in someone's mind. Ya can't fix stupid.

In my opinion... it's doing too danged much in the background. Checking syntax and rubbish like that, which I didn't ask it to do. I prefer VS 2010 -- the last usable version -- when I use VS at all.

Do you have Resharper? Or some other 3rd party extensions? Try disable them all!

I experience a lag when opening new type of files, and that is obviously because the 'background' loading of all the needed libraries for the new type... No such lag while typing I can see...

Despite what some luddites may say about newer versions, VS2022 has been very responsive for me since I first installed it last November - I've liked this version a lot. MS has been doing some really good things with VS lately. A couple of versions ago (VS2017 I think) I noticed VS getting very laggy for me all the time. At the time I used Resharper. I disabled that and everything was nice and responsive again. So I wrote a small extension that did a couple of things I mostly was using Resharper for, and uninstalled Resharper and haven't looked back. My colleagues have done the same - enough of the really useful Resharper functionality has been added to vanilla VS to make living without Resharper doable. My first suggestion is that if you have Resharper, disable that and see if your issues go away. Resharper has gotten quite bloated over the years. If there's some Resharper functionalities that you really need, but only from time to time, one of my colleagues uses my extension and then just keeps Resharper disabled, enabling it only when he needs to use those functionalities, then disables it again. If you're not using Resharper, then try disabling all extensions, see if the issue goes away, then if so, re-enable extensions one at a time until you get the lag. If it's not extensions, one of my colleagues had issues with VS lag due to the company-installed anti-virus doing constant checks against some VS-used files that get changed frequently by it, which would lock the files when doing the checks, causing the lag. Might be worth checking that out and getting some folders excluded from the antivirus check if so.

That's hitting me hard, and not only with VS
M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

It happens to me w/ some regularity. I always utilize the latest Preview version. I have few extensions installed. The swirling blue circle I quite dislike. Why everything does not happen instantly I do not understand. Maybe it is my pig of a machine.
