    Oh, VS is not “little”, it’s one of the bloatiest pieces of software on earth.

    Also, Forms? How dare you. :p

      Can confirm. Have had to download the full VS 2022 Pro over a shit wifi connection at work 55GB. It took half a day then failed. Re run the command to recheck every package and get the missing / broken ones and it is a single threaded app so it takes forever computing file hashes on one thread.

      In the end it took around 7.5 hours.

          Everything. It’s going on a network not connected to the internet so I don’t want to exclude something and have go through the faff of getting extra bits that end up being needed.

      It’s not so bad in the newer version. The switch x64 and put of process architecture helps a decent amount.

      I always have a pretty beefy dev machine though.
