Hi friends
after working visual studio (on my report model project) few minutes it runs too slow. i mean clicking on entities ,attributes takes ages to finish. I opened task manager i see "devenv.exe" is taking more than 800,000 k !!
am using sql server 2005 standard edition.
have you seen similar problem.
Thanks for your help.

visual studio running too slow
developer
sorry ,did not understand ur question,can u be more specific please.
>>when you save model and dsv to files, how big are they
the dsv file is 129kb and smdl file is 261 kb.
i noticed one interesting thing ,for example, when you add a filter for an entity in model designer ,when you try set a value for the filter ,VS tries to load data from database , right
but what happens ,sometimes ,i get warning that ,a connection could not be made. but at the same time if open query analyzer with same credentials it works nicely !!
BTW i create ,view reports without any problems (using Report builder) though.

Hi prk,
by stable repro I meant a list of actions to get to the problem (something like this):
1. create model project
2. add this dsv
3. add this model
4. add this filter to that entity and watch memory consumtion - it grows to 800k
If possible (no commercial secrets), send me the model and the dsv and the list of repro actions I need to do to repro the issue on my dev machine.

am wondering if you found any solution regarding this.
BTW i used "filemon" software from www.sysinternals.com to see whats happening when VS starts taking up all my pc memory and i found some errors in its log ,they are
1)353 5:29:31 p.m. devenv.exe:264 QUERY INFORMATION C:\WINDOWS\assembly\GAC_32\Microsoft.ReportingServices.SemanticQueryEngine\9.0.242.0__89845dcd8080cc91 PATH NOT FOUND Attributes: Error
2)356 5:29:31 p.m. devenv.exe:264 QUERY INFORMATION C:\WINDOWS\assembly\GAC_MSIL\Microsoft.ReportingServices.SemanticQueryEngine\9.0.242.0__89845dcd8080cc91 PATH NOT FOUND Attributes: Error
3)359 5:29:31 p.m. devenv.exe:264 QUERY INFORMATION C:\WINDOWS\assembly\GAC\Microsoft.ReportingServices.SemanticQueryEngine\9.0.242.0__89845dcd8080cc91 PATH NOT FOUND Attributes: Error
but i dont have any folder like GAC or GAC_32 under my C:\WINDOWS\assembly\ folder.
but none of my colleagues have this folder either but their VS run fine !!

i think i found out whats happening.
I use Yahoo desktop search. it indexes all files on my disk. i excluded my VS project folder from indexing and for last 1 hour it has not been slow down.
Thank God :)

prk,
I've been coding to much recently to take the time and run this issue to the ground. However, I can answer some of your missing folder questions. The GAC is the Global Assembly Cache, from what I understand this is where compiles .NET assemblies live. See, when you compile a .net from into an .exe or .dll its not really machine code yet. It just gets compiled in microsoft IL (intermediate language). Then the first time you run a .net app on your computer, the local framework compiles it into machine code and runs it. This is how a .net 2.0 application can run on on either x86 or x64 machine from the same .exe. The GAC folders are kind of weird and are generally hidden from any of the windows explorer views. Generally, I can use the command line and get into and see these folders. The log file above looks like it references the compiled reporting services pieces in your GAC.

unfortunatly i cant do stable repro .
it works for first 1 hour fine after started VS and after that it starts taking up all memory.
when i open task manager i can see memo usage grows by 100k each time !!!
i also noticed its not model project that has issues its with any type of solution i use with VS.
u want me to send the log i created using www.sysinternals.com (software is filemon) instead
