VS 2017 - Very slow (laggy) when debugging

Question

When I debug my solution, vs 2017 is very laggy and slow it\'s like it has to operate something heavy in the background.

So it stops \"responding\" every 5 seconds for 2

Answer 1

In my case I had a break point with a condition that was never met. I had forgotten about about this break point altogether. Sometimes adding a simple condition to a break point can slow down the debugging speed a lot.

Just adding this in case it might help someone.
