That&#x27;s a pretty good guide.<p>Visual Studio gets a lot of guff for being laggy and resource intensive. But in my experience if you run Visual Studio out of the box it is pretty responsive, it is only after you add extensions (particularly Resharper) that it starts to feel worse.<p>Although disabling Code Lens (which seems to have a few bugs anyway) can definitely help if you want rock bottom resource usage. It is a wonderful feature if you work in teams (or just want to look at a specific piece of code&#x27;s history).
