| Saving a large file (4200+ lines... I know don't blame me!) takes a very long time and the tabbar(Task List, Output, etc) starts flickering like crazy. This didn't happen before and doesn't happen when VAX is disabled. BTW, I'm using VS2003 |

Hmmm... I just saved my 9676-line file (don't get me started) with no problems. Have you tried the normal IDE stuff (delete the NCB file, etc.), and the normal VAX stuff (Rebuild, Clear, etc.)?

| I too have large source files and don't seem to have any problems with them. What's wrong with large source files? With all the editor stuff these days it doesn't really matter if your code is in one file or scattered throughout many files. Though I guess there are 10000 line files that are nice and tidy and easy to navigate and then there are 10000 line files that make your brain hemmorage. |

| "Why, then, 'tis none to you; for there is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so." (http://www.robinprior.net/articles/hamlet.html) That's all well and good, but in the "Big Ball of Mud" trenches where I slog (http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?BigBallOfMud), a 10,000 line file is, more often than not, an indicator that someone, somewhere, had no clue what they were doing. Life may be better in your domain... "to me it is a prison." |

| Deleted NCB, cleared VAX cache, rebuilt VAX database... same thing. To notice: the tabbar flickers like crazy and then the ide is irresponsive for several seconds while the CPU is pegged at 97%. This happens in a header file that contains 100+ class declarations with a lot of inlined members. |

Can you enable logging on the performance tab of the VA options dialog and reproduce the problem and close the IDE. This will create two files c:\\va.log and c:\\VAssist.log, please zip and send to [email protected].
Thanks,

| I changed some VAX options, rebuilt the database and the problem went away. Unfortunately I wasn't very careful so I cannot tell what fixed the problem. As soon as I have time I will try to reproduce it and then I'll send you the log files. |
