What do you call ReSharper scrollbar?

Please, make it optional! Cheers, André Carlucci Hello,

Will it be possible to remove the resharper scrollbar in this version? Please, make it optional!

Cheers,

I've followed the instructions in this link http://www.jetbrains.net/confluence/display/ReSharper/OutOfMemoryException%2BFix which is for a wrapper to devenv.exe which causes the memory allocation algorithm ofVisual Studio to be altered so that memory fragmentation is better managed. Well done JetBrains! I also followed the instructions in the link on that page to Steven Harman's blog where he details how you can get Visual Stuido to *actually* use all the memory on your machine if you have 4GB of RAM. These made a HUGE IMPROVEMENT. But make sure you backup first before changing anything - a colleague didn't have quite so plain a sailing as I had with these changes.

To the extent that I may need to remove resharper from the mix. I constantly get 'Out of memory' exceptions in Resharper. Not necessarily r#'s fault but my symptoms are that things get gradually worse, then suddenly unworkable. All I can do is restart VS. After doing so memory in use is down to 1.5GB and 1.9GB after Resharper has finished its startup exercises. I can't physically add any more memory to my PC without getting a new 64bit machine. I have a dual core PC with 4GB RAM - maybe Max should come and work on our 57 project solution (and growing) with his whizzy machine and see how he feels after a few hours work. The alternative to ditching Resharper is to split the solution but it is a great shame that we would have to go to this extent. On the status bar when memory usage is listed as 240MB or above I know I will soon get Resharper reporting out of memory and will have to restart Visual Studio. It is a real PIA.

@ Max,

I’m glad you’re pretty happy with R# with decent hardware. I secretly wish more people had decent hardware.
Caching and intermediate representation are there of course. Unfortunately, they don’t immediately cure everything.

But a decent hardware with 2 cores and 4 gigs of RAM lets it work without problems. However there may be ways to mitigate that slowdowns - and here you R# devs may listen. Once I worked in a C project with Eclipse IDE. I had simultaneously opened the Linux kernel and OpenSolaris kernel (Eclipse people say it's not a big project). It took some time to create an index with all symbols, but after that "Find usages", "Find in files", "Go to declaration" worked instantly, and I don't know how many other great features too. This is an example, I'm pretty sure that at some level inside R# there are things that could be cached or precomputed and saved or anything. So maybe it's worth creating some more temporary files with indexes and I don't know, some intermediate representation of the source, to be really fast? Maybe some clever data structures to cache Intellisense would do the trick? I'd be certainly slower and my software would have been more buggy without Resharper. Version 5 introduces my favorite feature - a Linq converter, which will help my software to be even simpler, quicker written and looking more functional style, easier to maintain and easier to parallelize (thanks to .NET 4).
