Last month, Microsoft released Visual Studio 2022 version 17.10 for Windows.Update versionThe new release (version 17.10.2) includes several performance improvements, including faster loading of Windows Forms Designer and .NET solutions, faster Razor/C# coloring, and reduced DLL load in certain scenarios.

Windows Forms Designer loading speeds for projects targeting .NET Core 3.1 or higher have been improved as a result of feedback from developers and various partners. By improving the way assemblies are prioritized and loaded, Microsoft says it has improved designer restart times by 30% to 50% for typical business applications. Similarly, .NET solution loading times have been improved by reducing the size of the evaluation cache, according to a report from Microsoft.Orchard CoreThe solution measured a nearly 50% reduction in cache size and a 10% reduction in open time for the same solution.

Another improvement in this release is the speed of C# code coloring in Razor. Code coloring is a task performed by the C# language service (Roslyn). This process is usually fast, but Microsoft says it can take hundreds of milliseconds in about 10% of cases. To address this issue, Roslyn has been optimized accordingly, and Microsoft says it has reduced coloring time by about 25% in the slowest cases.

Other performance improvements in this release relate to CPU and memory usage. In particular, the number of DLLs loaded in certain scenarios has been reduced by 10%, which has a positive impact on project loading times. However, exact figures regarding this improvement have not been provided by Microsoft.
