Visual studio 2013 immediate window and searching slow

I'm running visual studio 2013 with resharper. Fast machine, 24gb of memory, editing, compiling is all lightning fast.

If I try to search within the file, or I try to type a command into the immediate window, it's unusable slow - like literally 40 seconds between key strokes.

Any idea what's going on, and how to fix this?

Why is the Visual Studio 2013 Slow?

It is something concerned with the graphics drivers. If you update them you will be fine. Or you can disable the hardware graphics acceleration in Visual Studio according to these steps: In Visual Studio, click "Tools", and then click "Options".

Why is Visual Studio so slow?

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.

I was having the same problem, with Visual Studio 2013 and Resharper 8. So I updated to Resharper 9 and… voila! The problem was fixed! I believe it is a bug in Resharper 8.
