poor VB.Net compiler performance with extension methods

[cheesehead36]

Hi all,

I'm working on a large VB.NET application (.NET framework 3.5) that
includes a project in the solution with extension methods. As the
project gets larger, the compile time on the extensions project
continues to take more and more time, we're currently at about 5-10
minutes for a full compile. We're working on other projects with
similar architectures and size in C# that don't experience the slow
compile time. Has anyone else experienced this and does anyone have
an idea how to bring the compile time down?

I have a Project Manager who showed to me he has written a MDI
application consisting of more than 28 projects in one solution. He
reasoned out that he designed it that way so that it is more
manageable and he could
easily debug a particular project when there's a problem found.

i can't imagine someone put 28 project into 1 solution ? unless he/she has the most high end computer to use.

Admittedly, that is an extreme example. I doubt if it made the
projects more manageable in this instance.

But then, what is a Project manager doing delving in solution and
project files !? ;-)
