Hi pickedaname,
From your description, you're encountering high memory consumption problem
when using the Visual Studio 2005 IDE(with sp1 installed), correct?
Regarding on this problem, I've performed some research and found that
there has some known issue about open some certain item in Visual Studio
cause devenv consuming high memory, however, it should have been fixed in
SP1. Here is the kb article on this known issue:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;924331 For some other former cases having similar symptom, most of them are caused
by open a particular project item(or a certain project with specific
settings). Based on the nature of this issue, it's hard to detect the
exacct cause without thorough debugging such as analyze the memory dump of
the process(devenv). So far I would suggest you try isolating the problem
scenario, is the high memory behavior occur whenever you launch VS
2005(without opening any project) or always open a particular project? If
possible, you can make a typical project package that can duplicate the
problem so that I can help perform some local test.
Sincerely,
Steven Cheng
