Slow typing still present after many years

[Andrew_Smith]

Slow typing performance of the Fortran integration in Visual Studio has been noted many times.
Visual Studio detects the slowdowns in productivity and often recommends us to disable the integration.

Are there recommend settings to speed it up, or are we stuck with this forever?

On my Vs2022 install it is typing(0), is that default? How do you switch it on and what does it do (I will look it up)?. I have the slow down after an extended period of editing with it seeming to need to do scans / searches updates of the source document formatting that can take several seconds after every keystroke. That has been around some years also, the solution is to close and start VS which is not too bad these days as it remembers pretty much everything and takes the same time as a couple of frustrating keystroke updates. It is still however annoying and would be better fixed. It has the feel of an  exponential memory leak that grows slowly at first and then goes stratospheric ....  Do you guys at Intel see this?

It seems like the more productivity features are added, the lesser productivity is attained.

I think this is more like memory fragmentation, as well as logging the Undo edit history. A solution that is open for a long time, can have a sizable depth to the edit histories of all the files in the solution. Closing the Solution and reopening the Solution tends to clean out the Undo history.

You can also intermittently disable and reenable intellisense and/or related features not needed during your current edit session.
