FWIW, I did install those extensions and they have worked very well.
On one installation however, they did crash my VS instance when trying to connect to a TFS Server. There is a simple registry fix for this which I have applied and everything works well again. I can't say I have seen any degradation in VS performance as a result. - Glav From: ozdotnet-boun...@ozdotnet.com [mailto:ozdotnet-boun...@ozdotnet.com] On Behalf Of Geoff Appleby Sent: Wednesday, 30 June 2010 12:26 PM To: ozDotNet Subject: SPAM-MED: Re: IIS Express Bugger.

In regards to the productivity power tools, I tried it last week and the experience was terrible. VS just went from running nice and smooth to an absolute hog, while opening files took anywhere from 30 seconds to 5 minutes. There was also an update in that time, but it just made things worse. IMHO I'd be hanging out for a few more release cycles before trying.
