Subject: Re: [WiX-users] votive causing massive pauses in Visual Studio Aha! Absolutely: WiX/Votive: 3.0.4721.0 Visual Studio 2008 SP1 Windows XP SP3 and Windows Vista SP1 Also, we don't have any C++ projects in the solution - and my machine (Vista SP1/VS2008SP2/Wix 4207) doesn't exhibit these problems (they still had the problem before they upgraded from this version)...

Subject: [WiX-users] votive causing massive pauses in Visual Studio Hi, We are using WiX in solutions with 15-20 projects, including 4 WiX projects. On 2 of our machines, one is XP and one is Vista32, Visual Studio hogs 50% of the CPU for about 4 minutes after startup, then on the Vista machine the text editor pauses for about a second on every operation (in _any_ file, C#, Xml etc) such as keypresses and mouse clicks. Unloading the WiX projects fixes the key-press pause, and uninstalling WiX (Votive) fixes everything else... Has anyone else experienced this problem?
