My Visual Studio 2012 has become slow to open. In 'safe mode' it's fast again. Presumably some extensions are slowing Visual Studio. Which?
Is there an analogue of Internet Explorer's feature which shows load time for each extensions? http://blogs.msdn.com/b/ie/archive/2009/07/18/how-to-make-ie-open-new-tabs-faster.aspx
Thanks Jesse, ActivityLog.xml
has the information I want. Unfortunately, it's unreadable. I wrote a Python script to extract the relevant details
import sys
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
try:
f = open(sys.argv[1])
except IndexError:
f = sys.stdin
soup = BeautifulSoup(f)
loads = dict()
for entry in soup.find_all('entry'):
description = entry.find('description')
if not (description and "package load" in description.get_text() ):
continue
print(entry)
print()
I solved my similar problem with "The Activity Log Profiler". It's just an xsl-Stylesheet for the Activity Log and shows the HotSpots and Errors in current ActivityLog.xml

There is also a Blog-Entry about it: http://startbigthinksmall.wordpress.com/2011/11/08/activity-log-profiler-find-out-which-extension-is-slowing-down-your-visual-studio/
