Hi there,
Have a problem that I've had for a long time and never quite worked out... Turns out VisualStudio constantly hangs and freezes for more than 10 seconds at random points when autocomplete gets triggered.
I've disabled Intellisense but this has not helped.

My first suggestion would have been to disable IDE intellisense, so that was a good test to try.

Which IDE and version of VA are you using?

A rather random thought, does turning OFF:

VA Options -> Display -> Display VA Navigation Bar:

make any difference? We have seen a few odd performance problems related to the navigation bar, so its just possible you are seeing something similar.

Are you seeing any pattern to these freezes? Does it happen when trying to trigger a VA Snippet? What about member variables accessed via a dot or ->

How easily can you reproduce this? How often does it happen? Can you reproduce this problem on demand?

You are using an old version. So if this is easily reproduced, it would make sense to install the latest version as a trial, and see if it fixes the problem. Obviously this is a lot easier if you can reproduce on demand, since you can easily tell that way if the new version makes a difference.

Also, have you tried disabling IDE intellisense? This is normally done via:

IDE tools menu -> Options -> Text Editor -> C/C++ -> Advanced -> Disable Database = True

and can make quite a difference in some situations.
