My Visual Studio seems to be freezing/lagging when I open a existing project. I have added NHibernate framework into my code and it seems to lag my computer (at least that's what I think). When I open other projects, I do not lag or freeze at all. The freeze is about 3- seconds to a minute, then it will open my project and it will just act very slowly, it might take 20+ seconds just to switch classes an 20+ more seconds just to type a single character into visual studios.
I was wondering if anyone has had this problem before. If so how did you fix it?
I can't really work on my code until this is fixed. Oh also, when is save the code, it freezes for a good minute or two also.

The freeze of the solution is caused by a feature that is meant to fasten up solution loading: parallel project initialization. It seems to be an issue that some others already had with 16.2. x versions, so it may be a regression (as it is flagged as fixed).
I purposefully froze my terminal with CTRL S in visual studio code, so that I could inspect the fast log messages scrolling through. Normally, you can unfreeze it again with CTRL Q .
Use Visual Studio normally to reproduce the crash, once crash occurs let all Windows crash dialogs finish processing. Go to %LOCALAPPDATA%\CrashDumps and locate the latest dump file for devenv.exe process. You can then attach this file to the feedback issue.
If while opening a large file, VSCode freezes and then crashes, you need to delete some files. So, open Run, paste “%AppData%” and click Ok. Now, open Code > Backup and then delete the only folder that is inside that directory. Finally, restart VSCode and see if the issue persists.
You can see exactly what VS is doing at any given moment, if you attach a debugger to the devenv.exe process and hit Break when it hangs. Then load the symbols from Microsoft Symbols server and show the call stack for the VS main thread.
I wrote a very detailed article about how to debug crashes and hangs here: http://blogs.msdn.com/kirillosenkov/archive/2008/12/07/how-to-debug-crashes-and-hangs.aspx
From the call stack it should be obvious what is causing the delay.

For me, removing the suo file (from the v14 sub directory) solved the problem...
