12 years ago Looks like this is caused by us having to serialise a large amount of data to pass from the debugger to the visualizer. You can see other visualizers have this problem too http://stackoverflow.com/questions/787334/how-to-keep-visual-studio-debugger-visualizers-from-timing-out
User Workarounds:
- Add the dictionary to a Watch and then select to Visualize from the Watch window (the Watch window is afforded a longer timeout than debugger tooltip windows). Info source.
- Change the timeouts in registry (like the SO post says).
Fix Options
- Look at some of the other data methods. Likely we can chunk it.
- We reduce the amount of data that we serialize.
- We use a faster serializer! Maybe protocol buffers. Also, we should deal with that exception if possible.
