I'd second that. In the past five years (or at least since VS 2008), I can remember VS crashing on me maybe half a dozen times. That's with spending most of my time working on pretty large multi language projects.

For context, I don't use any extensions other than (sometimes) ReSharper and Tortoise svn/git/hg.




Mine doesn't crash on Web projects, but can't work for a couple of hours on a Windows Phone 7 project without it going boom.

I think most of it works fine and dandy, but some parts can be quite sensitive.


Fair enough, I haven't worked on any Windows Phone 7 stuff yet, so it may be fatally brittle there.


I've dumped all extensions - I had R# and VisualSVN.

The solution does have about 80,000 files though.


Maybe VS crashing is the symptom, and you should look for the cause around the fact that your solution has 80,000 files within it?
