Umm ok - just a quick timing on the dev box im sitting at:

Assuming that the Webserver and Appliction pool are running - then it takes no longer than about 15 second from hitting the DEBUG button - to a breakpoint set in the PageLoad of a module to trigger.

But what is even better - is that I can change a line of code = or many lines of code.

And hit the Page Refresh  - then it takes about 5 - 8 second for the breakpoint to trigger.

And I can continue to change code on the fly and continue to debug without dropping back to application.

Using your compile - attach - debug method - I would be surprised if you can get the same turnaround performance.

Oh - and this dev box is the old slow one - we use for legacy testing :: on the dual core - its almost instant.
