This is so true. I switched over to VS2010 from VC6 and was wondering where the performance went. I still find myself opening VC6 to just quickly edit something. All these fancy things are nice, but boy the waiting. Try pressing F12 on a symbol in a LARGE project. You can have two cups of coffee before the dev environment comes back with a result.
