Using unloaded project information

I am using NCrunch 2.7.0.5. Our solution currently contains 228 project where around 80 are loaded local in my solution. But it seems, that NCrunch always builds all 228 projects which slows the whole studio dramatically so that I need to restart it several times a day, because this help for the next two hours or so. Is there a possibility to let NCrunch only build the loaded projects?

Hi,

NCrunch will only load projects that are either:

A. Loaded inside the IDE

.. or ..

B. Referenced by projects that are loaded inside the IDE

This means that if you unload whole dependency chains of projects, you can reduce the number of projects that NCrunch will load or consider at any one time. It also means that if you have one project at the top of your dependency tree loaded, then NCrunch will still load the entire tree, regardless of whether these projects are individually loaded inside the IDE.

NCrunch v2.11 introduced a feature that separates the NCrunch engine from the VS IDE, allowing it to run in a different process. This massively reduces the impact of the engine on IDE performance, especially when working with large solutions such as yours. If you haven't given the latest version a try, I highly recommend it.

Thank you for your fast reply. It seems, that it really is fixed with the newer version. Unfortunately Expired your license with 2.7.0.5 being the last version available to me. Seems like I need to once again convince my superior ;-)
