I just tested both 2008 and 2010 b1 again just to be sure and only the first open took many seconds then it was quick. I don't understand. I'm certain I've seen the Add new class dialog take atleast a second to open but it didn't repro right now. Oh well hope it stays fast. :)</p> <div style="clear:both;"></div><img src="http://blogs.msdn.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=9907459" width="1" height="1">http://blogs.msdn.com/b/ricom/archive/2009/10/14/my-history-of-visual-studio-part-8.aspx#9907456Thu, 15 Oct 2009 05:48:13 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:9907456zzz<p>&quot;Create New Project dialog – something which can never quite go fast enough&quot;</p> <p>Isn't that quite rarely used compared to the c# Add new class dialog? Which in 2010 Beta 1 was abysmally slow - I'm making this comment to verify that it no longer takes over 300 ms to open.</p> <div style="clear:both;"></div><img src="http://blogs.msdn.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=9907456" width="1" height="1">
