Qt Visual Studio Tools 2.2.0 performance issues
-
It seems that there is a major performance issue with version 2.2.0. This occurs mainly on large solutions in my opinion. I have a solution with 156 projects in it, when I start building the solution, the devenv.exe process will hange for up to 30 seconds before actually starting to build. It will take 15/40 % cpu load.
When I disable the Qt Visual Studio Tools extensions, building starts instantly.
The problem also occurs with 2.1.1, but at least that seems a lot faster (about 3 seconds before starting to build).
All PC’s at my company are expiriencing this lag since the automatic update. I see a lot of sad faces over here.This is an issue that must be resolved, every small incremental build will now take me at least 30 seconds while freezing Visual Studio.
I’m wondering what the plugin is doing before starting the build, seems to be scanning something, the more files in the solution, the bigger the issue.

Hi @Mike.J.,
as this looks like a bug, the best place to report it is https://bugreports.qt.io/projects/QTVSADDINBUG
That is the place where the developers look them up, not here and not in the Qt Blog.
Regards
