Web Site takes forever to run in debug mode

Hi there,
I have a VS 2005 Web Site project that is taking an age to
build or run. It takes about fifteen minutes to run in debug mode. Even if
I just select Build Page, Visual Studio hangs for about five minutes.
There are about 20 pages so far and about 50 references.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Re: Web Site takes forever to run in debug mode

First thing, try to clear ASP.NET temporary directory.

Assuming things are installed in their default locations:

C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\Temporary ASP.NET Files

or

C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\Temporary ASP.NET Files

Never done this and just looked in the folder. It is running at 237 MB and
has 13K files. Is it safe to delete all these files at any time (while IIS
is not running)?

Thanks

Thanks, is there a way to cause this to happen on a schedule within IIS?

I don't think so, but it would be a fairly trivial matter to create a
Windows scheduled task to do it...

OK I've done that. What next?
