VS 2010

There’s some great stuff coming up with VS2010. First, there’s a focus on performance (probably because Rico Mariani is for some time the chief  architect of Visual Studio, so startup should improve as well as the text editor), but no plans for a 64 bit version.

 

Another area getting a lot of attention (that is deserved) is parallel computing, with some new patterns and librarys (thanks for the post, Mário):

 

An area that I’m especially eager to really discover is debugging/profiling with VS2010. According to one Dev Manager, the Beta 1 already has:

  • Historical Debugging (collecting events, parameters, performance monitor)
  • Test impact Analysis
  • Tier profiling (DB calls)
  • Parallel performance analyzer
  • Performance rules

Which is very good, and John Robbin already dived deep and poked with the feature.
