What type of processor will run Visual Studio Community and perform instant no delay compiles? Apparently 3.9Ghz Quad Core with 16GB of DDR4 3600mhz RAM isn’t enough. What will make things snappy?

question

asp.net

c#

    Get a server rack full of threadrippers/EPYC I guess.

    Sell it as a service too for paying the extreme debt too.

    Visual Studio instantly compiling? Haha, maybe if you could ask NASA to borrow their computer...

    Isn't a lot of the time due to io? Reading and writing files?

    Use an SSD, even a SATA one is far better than an hdd. Make sure it's not a cacheless ssd though.

    Write .net core and compile from terminal in less than a second on a budget cell phone.

    SSDs made a huge diff for me. Also, are your compiler settings correct for parallel build and full cpu support?

    Also, add exception to Windows Defender for the dev directories. Defender likes to scan the shit outa that stuff when you are compiling slowing things down.

    Really depends how big the project you want to compile is, downloading the orchard repo and try building that

    Your specs though shouldn’t be that bad really though to run vs

    @catgirl have you tried the "detailedBuildSummary" switch too?
