I\'m currently evaluating Visual Studio 2015 RC. I\'ve noticed when running the IDE, The Visual Studio 2015 process is constantly at around 25% CPU usage. Even without a project
I want to share my experience, In my case I had to diable all extensions and updates and code analysis c#.
1-For extensions and updates :
Tools => Extensions and updates
2-For the code analysis
Solution explorer => right click on the project => Properties =>Click on the tab "Code analysis" => click on the "Open" bouton => Uncheck the checkbox "Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.CSharp" => save and exit.
Cpu usage descended to 1 %.
