Delay with File Save with VS2005 Client

Post by mtanderson » Thu Jul 05, 2007 8:56 am

When saving a file in Visual Studio 2005, Vault 4.0.1 and VS2005 client, there is an approximate 2 second hourglass delay every time that you save a file. While this doesn't sound like much, I am a chronic Ctrl+S file saver and a file save blocks the UI thread and pretty much prevents you from doing anything while the save is occuring.

This issue is exclusive to the VS2005 client. With the same solution (5 projects - 100 files or less per project) and the VS2003 client, the delay is only about 1/4 of a second (or less).

I realize this is pretty minor but I thought I would bring it up anyway. Maybe it's just something that is simple that and can be corrected pretty easily.

One other thing, the SCC style setting (CVS or VSS) doesn't seem to matter. The delay occurs with both of these styles.

Save blocks UI thread

Post by Jejox » Sat Mar 01, 2008 10:14 am

I'm experiencing the same problem lately. First weeks, everything worked smoothly, now, saving the solution just blocks the VS UI thread for 10+ seconds. This then probably has something to do with certain items in the store, because I'm also having a couple of items which I can't check in anymore. I'm just guessing, but this is really an annoying problem, since the VS safe point autosave also blocks for several seconds - blocking the UI while coding.
