VS2008 on Windows 8 stepping through when debugging a web-app takes a long time

When I try to step through a web-app via F10 key in VS2008 running on Windows 8 Pro it takes about 3 seconds for each step through to complete.

On windows XP and windows 7 running VS2008 debugging the same project that doesn't happen.

If anyone has a idea of why this would be happening on Windows 8 only, please do share.

Thank you.

I've removed a lot of the watch variables from the Watch 1 window during debugging and stepping through is now basically happening in real time with no delay.

Strange how this doesn't need to be done on Windows 7 or XP.

I guess it is another notch on the list of Windows 8 quirks.

What browser are you using? This used to be an issue with FireFox and Ipv6. If you are using FireFox please try these steps :

  1. Open FireFox browser.
  2. Type 'about:config' in the address bar (without the single quotes).
  3. Type this in the Search bar that appears : Ipv6
  4. You should see the 'network.dns.disableIPv6' property and click on Toggle. Restart FireFox browser.
  5. Debug again and see if the debugging is now faster.
