    Fuck you Visual Studio SP1:

    Microsoft hasn’t included the sourceserver section to their symbol files.

    you actually debug the .NET framework code? i tried it once, and it was so incredibly slow i turned it off

    Long live Reflector :)

    Its only slow the first time it has to fetch it. Dropped in a cache afterwards.

    Wow, this is the first thing I’ve seen that made me even consider downloading it at all – thanks for the notice, as well as all the other great content here!

    Davy,

    John Robbins has a tools that prefetches all the .NET source code: . This should solve the annoying delays.

    that looks interesting, but what about loading all of the debugging symbols of the .NET framework itself… doesn’t that slow things down a lot either?

    About the time it takes to fire up reflector
