Fuck you Visual Studio SP1:
Microsoft hasn’t included the sourceserver section to their symbol files.

Long live Reflector

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

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