How to fix Visual Studio 2012 freeze while editing aspx pages with installed Office Developer Tools

I'm working with SharePoint 2013, so I need the Office Developer Tools for Visual Studio 2012 to be installed. When I'm editing .aspx pages associated with a Web Part, the Visual Studio is freezing for a few seconds every one or two minutes. How can I fix this problem?

PS: I can change a default editor, assotiated with aspx pages, but I don't like this solution since I want to save intellisence and syntax highlight.

One tool you could use to diagnose this is SysInternal's Process Monitor. I've done this with periodic hang-ups in the past. Start by just filtering file and/or registry operations on the Visual Studio process, devenv.exe. Look for the last few to occur just before a hang-up, and use that data to further refine your filtering and searching. Based on the periodic nature of the delay, my intuition says it's related to background compilation (i.e., the Intellisense database being updated). So, you might want to filter further on NCB file ops, etc.
