Performance tips for making Visual Studio 2010 faster? [closed]

Question

I don't know if anybody else has had an issue with the performance of Visual Studio 2010, but I close it daily and reopen it, and with an hour it starts to really bog down, and can't even keep up with my typing. Is there some obvious setting I am missing that would help to speed it up?

I am also using ReSharper, but even if I remove that, it only marginally increases the speed.

Since a couple of people have asked for my machine specs:

Intel Q9550 @ 2.83 GHz 4 Cores 8GB Physical RAM 2x 60GB SSD in RAID0 combination for solution/project VS2010 RTM Ultimate Windows Server 2008 x64 R2 (Performance set for Applications) 

Although it is sad to hear that the answer is "buy faster hardware" when my hardware is actually pretty good.

EDIT: Including a link to the Visual Studio Performance Diagnostics tool suggested by TimothyP

I recommend you consider to install some hotfixes from http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/Downloads. I had also havy performance problems before and seen messages like "insufficient memory" during Cut & Paste operations. This problem and some other (inclusive different Memory leak problems) are already hixed. After installing some hotfixes from http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/Downloads the performance of Visual Studio on my computer is much better.
