Visual Studio 2010 SP1 Performance

Question

I\'ve noticed since installing Visual Studio 2010 SP1 that I\'m having huge performance issues. It will randomly freeze up on me quite a bit.

I had no performance issues

Answer 1

I haven't noticed this problem, but Scott Guthrie's blog entry on SP1 indicated near the end that VS SP1 now uses software rendering rather than hardware rendering. This can cause perf issues for some. You may want to check this out. You can access the setting in Tools | Options on the Environment/General dialog.
