My BizTalk Project Rebuild takes very very long time especially for MAP Projects, this is relatively very small schema and before it was taking very less time but suddenly the REBUILD time is up to 30-40 mins.
Please provide your expect comment on and if you known any cause for this.

I have noticed that with BTS 2016 / VS2015 the maps build very slowly. I can't explain why but running the build from a visual studio command prompt results in much faster builds. It's a bit of a pain because need to remember to close VS first.
Navigate to the solution folder and run "msbuild .sln"
Used Rob Bowman's answer as principle, but I manage to just unload projects from solution from Solution Explorer directly (mark all projects, right click, and select Unload Project), and then run the
msbuild *.sln /t:Clean,Rebuild
from Visual Studio Command Prompt. When finished, just reload projects in Solution Explorer.
It saves me minutes (!) when I need to rebuild solution.

I’m using VB 2019 with the latest updates on 64-bit Windows 10 with the same. In the past few days I’ve started having a 30-40 second delay when loading my code in debug mode. Up until a couple of days ago this only took about 5 seconds. Any ideas what might have happened and/or how I can reduce this delay starting up my code every time I make a change to it?
Windows updated a couple of items each of the last couple of nights, I wonder if any of these have triggered the new behavior.
The reason may be that many files are created during compilation, and the anti-virus tool provided by Microsoft will scan the created files, so the compilation speed is reduced.
You can set a folder whitelist in the Windows Security Center, which is Windows Defender. Files in this folder will not be scanned. Putting my own code warehouse, I will put all my code in a folder, add this folder to the whitelist, it will not be scanned during compilation, which can speed up the compilation speed.
In XAML build system in VS2012, there is an check box option "Build even if nothing has changed since the previous build", when Schedule option is selected.
This is missing in VNext build and the problem is that nightly build is fired even if no code was committed during the day. In my case it takes two hours to build with complete test suite.
Is there an easy workaround or plug in to achieve this?
Thanks
In TFS VNext build system Microsoft removed this option.
I would use an alternative instance of a workaround, you can create a build definition with a CI-trigger.
Another benefits of this practice is you get fast feedback if a change can not be integrated in the code base.
In this case you maybe need more than one build agent to run parallel builds in the case of parallel check-ins.
There is a feature request for it. But I think MS will not realize this request

I have a medium size project coded in vb.net using latest version of 2017 visual studio.
The problem that I am having right now is that when I edit a textbox say txtCarType to txtCarType2 it takes about 15 seconds to process.
I am also having the same issue with labels or renaming any control. how can I fix this issue this lagging its killing productivity.
Visual Studio is trying to be generous and refactor the new name throughout your project. This indeed helps as if it does not refactor you could be left with some errors. When you rename controls a refactor window pops up as it churns through files to refactor the name through-out the whole project. This indeed can be dreadful, irritating and possibly a long process depending on your solution/projects.
Please give this a shot...
Tools --> Options --> Windows Forms Designer (expand node)
General --> Refactoring (set "Enable Refactoring on Rename" to False)
Hope this helps!
Off the top of my head it could be one of 2 things.
It's just running a bit slower because of the size of your application. Trying to sort through all that data takes time, so it's just gonna take a few seconds to find what it needs and change it.
Refactoring for all references to the object in your code to prevent errors.
If I Build my solution from VS, it takes less than a minute to do all the checks to tell me all the projects have been built. If I do the same in team foundation build, it takes closer to 20 minutes.
i define as "items to build" only the solution (.sln file) and solution has 32 "projects".
Check the build definition workspace, make sure you are only pulling doen the code you need for the build.
Also TFS does a clean compile, I.e. it pulls down all of the code then rebuilds everything from scratch. How long does a clean build take locally? Less than a minute to build 32 projects seems quick so I suspect that your local build is incremental rather than full.
Run a build with diangnostic loging, this should give you a clue to the parts that are taking the time.
Using VB 2008
When I press the F5 or Start Debugging it does a rebuild even when I have made no changes since the last time. Where is the setting to tell it to only do a rebuild if there are changes?
F5 should a build and not rebuild, are you sure it's a rebuild? Even you do not make any changes, a 'pseudo' build is still executed, and should be significant faster than a normal build or rebuild.
EDIT:
My definition of a 'pseudo' build is to check for need to build and/or making sure all files required for debugging are present (e.g. pdb files)
In my installation, F5 (Start Debugging) only builds when changes have been made. This includes changes that don't actually effect the code (like modifying comments). If I do F5, close the program, and push F5 again (without changing anything), no rebuild takes place. Is there something I'm missing?
As other have mentioned, Visual Studio only rebuilds what it thinks needs rebuilding.
My advice is to check what it actually builds, to see what made the build system think it was out-of-date. I've often seen this issue when, e.g., a custom build step was used, and the output of the step was specificed incorrectly. So VS is expecting a built file (because you told it it would be there), and since the built file is not there, it restarts that specific build step, along with all the projects that depend on the project containing the build step.
This is just one example. It usually boils down to an expected generated file that gets moved or is missing.
If this does not help, maybe a build log would help identifying your issue in more depth.
