I have moderate size solution in Visual Studio which takes around 5 minutes to build (It take that long because of FxCop and other post build steps). My problem is, Visual Studio stops responding while it's building. You can't continue working as VS almost hangs. I tried using two VS instances, just using one for build, but it keeps crashing every now and then.
My question is, How to not waste time looking at Visual Studio building your large/moderate project. Are there any best practices for this?
You might have extensions installed that slow Visual Studio down. For help on managing extensions to improve performance, see Change extension settings to improve performance. Similarly, you might have tool windows that slow Visual Studio down.
You can hit Ctrl + Break on the keyboard to cancel/stop a build that is currently in progress.
