I've had a few occurences of the parser going crazy under VS6. Virtual Memory quickly rockets up to 1.2GB .. 1.5GB, and of course everything becomes unresponsive.

Closing VC6 keeps the process active for a long time at peak memory usage (Alwys killed them after 5..10 minutes)

Repro: Rare. Never happened under VC2005 (but I work mostly on VC6)

It seems to happen a few seconds after I open a file from a fodler I haven't been to for a long time (and which is not part of the project).
I tried to see something under the debugger, but all I could tell oyu is a list of many threads and a few addresses in VA_X.

------------

Not a big issue at the moment (as long as it's called beta )

Mindcrime how did you do this? did you simply launch 2 copies of VS2005 very quickly one after the other? were both copies trying to load the same solution, or different solutions?

i have my system set to never load a project, and to let me select the project i want to load from the start page. i am guessing both of your IDE's were loading projects.

I saw this again with build 1532. I think this is related to me starting 2 instances of VS2005 simultaneously. The 2 instances were maybe fighting with each other and corrupted the VAX data. I deleted the Proj_xxxxxxx directory under vc8 and restarted VS and it seems fine now.

Just a thought: could you "name" your threads? (http://www.codeproject.com/threads/Name_threads_in_debugger.asp)
That could help prying some information from the call stack without symbols.

Being VC 6, I would look for a corrupt .ncb file. I think that is what it has been whenever I saw this.

we have had a couple of other reports of similar behaviour, but so far i have not had any problems running 1530 on a fair sized project (over 4,000 files).

certainly any clues you can provide if you run into this more often will be most welcome.
