i have 488 entities & it takes about more than a minute to build the project with one line code added in a return method. is this a standard behavior observation & should I split this project to small projects? I have added 2 partial classes to the generated entities in a different folder within the same project. I added a property with a simple ToString return on its own property.

It takes a minute to build. Currently i just have the dbgeneric project but still it will not compile faster. There are no dependency added to it. Just the compiled objects. I have the the validators also being generated by the generator.

The 2.5 final & vs 2008 is used.

any suggestions where i might be making mistake or clue on the issue

thanks vairam

my environment is VS 2008, Gen Pro 2.5 Latest. I have installed Infragistics WPF. I have a separate solution for the generated code i.e. DbGeneric.

I am trying to add a property to one of the entity class when I see the performance. My command line msbuild also gave me the same performance.

However, I will try to split the validator, typed views into a separate project & will see the impact of it. thanks

The main bottleneck is vs.net. Compile on the command line (so not inside vs.net), it's much faster. If possible, you could use csc.exe directly. It's faster than msbuild (don't know why).
