Enterprise policies causing slow performance of Visual Studio 2003
We've experienced some really slow performance while opening and working with the IDE on large solutions (32 projects, lots of code, typed datasets, reports etc.) VS was causing high CPU usage for 10-20 minutes after opening the solution and most of the times caused the VB compiler to hang up while checking the code references.
It seems that Enterprise Policies where causing trouble. All the problems got away when we completely removed the policies from the project files.
