VS2010 Very High Memory Usage after Gallio Installation #709

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Expected:  VS2010 ~200MB memory usage, responsive application
Actual Results:  VS2010 ~1200MB memory usage, slow loading, unresponsive windows

With Gallio 3.2.517.0x86 installed, VS2010 uses > 1GB memory AT STARTUP without 
any projects loaded, loads slow, and is somewhat unresponsive.  If I uninstall 
Gallio, then reload VS2010 it uses under 200MB memory at startup and is 
responsive.  I repeated the process of uninstalling/reinstalling Gallio several 
times with the same results.  The machine was rebooted at least several times 
as well during this process.  For the Gallio install, at all times I selected 
'Custom' but did not change any defaults.

Most of the time VS would hang when exiting, using 25% CPU usage (spread 
equally among 4 virutal procs) before eventually killing the process after 
several minutes.

Environment:
Hyper-V Host Hardware:  White box i7-920 with 12GB RAM, SATA OS drive + 
PERC-5/i with 8-drive SATA RAID running Windows Server 2008R2 with Hyper-V 
(full not core)

Hyper-V client VM: 4 virtual processors (resource control @ 50% reserve, 100% 
limit), 3.5GB RAM, Windows Server 2008 Standard x86 
Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate
ReSharper 5.1
The following VS2010 addins were installed but disabled during this testing:  
PowerCommands, Productivity Power Tools, Snippet Designer.  Gemini Issue 
Tracker VS Addin is listed as disabled, but was uninstalled via control panel.

Other notable installed software:  VS2008, Office 2007, Countersoft Gemini 
Desktop, Axosoft OnTime Windows, Adobe Master Collection CS4, McAfee VirusScan, 
Dynamsoft SourceAnywhere, TortoiseHG, VisualHG

I was not able to reproduce this behavior on my Windows 7 x64 machine with 
either the x86 or x64 Gallio installs.  This machine had a similar set of 
installed software including VS2010 Ultimate with ReSharper 5.1.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.  Starting with VS2010 Ultimate, ReSharper 5.1 installed
2.  Install Gallio 3.2.517.0x86
3.  Open VS2010.  It is not necessary to load any projects.

Further testing narrowed it down to the Gallio ReSharper plugin.  If I remove 
that from the installation options, VS2010 works as expected.  Put it back in, 
slow, bloated, and unresponsive VS2010.
