I have a custom build of the orm support classes, sql server dqe, and the debug visualizers. When i try to inspect an entity collection I receive the following exception. Any ideas on where to start debugging this issue?

See the end of this message for details on invoking 
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

Seems relevant to this thread: http://www.llblgen.com/TinyForum/Messages.aspx?ThreadID=6148

Would you please attach a simple repro solution?

Apparently this is a bug in visual studio, at least that was what we concluded: the serialization takes too long and it times out. Could you enable fast serialization and try again? That might help perhaps as the serialization is faster.

Fast serialization? A quick google search didn't help much on that term...

It's a feature of llblgen pro

Available on adapter, see Using the generated code -> Adapter -> Distributed systems -> NET remoting support -> Enabling fast serialization.
