Speed up the debug mode in Visual c++2008

Hello guys,

I switched from Visual c++ 6 to Visual c++2008 lately. When i choose the debug mode and try to reach a breakpoint the speed is unbelieavable slow (much slower than this of visual studio 6). Can i do sth to speed up the debug mode, cause i cannot work and debug me code?

Thanks a lot in advance
Dimitris

Debug mode in VS2008 runs fast on all of my computers. What are your computer specifications? Are you sure the code isn't causing "lag" between the start and the break point?

VC6 is known to be very fast and much faster than its successors, but I can't think off-hand how to speed up VS2008. If you are working on a very small code base you shouldn't be experiencing problems.

I am using a quad core intel 2.83 ghz 12 mb cache, 4 gb RAM. There is low speed even if i run the program in debug mode without breakpoints. Is there any settings to change?

Thx a lot

I run a code of 5000 lines. It is an algorithm that i need to run it in debug mode sometimes to solve problems and watch its behavior. I am disappointed by this transition from VS6 to VS2008. Unacceptable performance. Anyways...

Thx a lot
Dimitris
