Fixing slow TFS2012

I was facing the problem of slow TFS server after I moved to VS 2012 and win 7.

Solution :-

Edit the file :-

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe.config

locate the line

<system.net>

and add the following line after it

<defaultProxy enabled="false" />

The problem is TFS client tries to connect to Internet proxy server whereas it should have bypassed it connected to the TFS machine instead.

If this also doesn't works try adding following lines in the same node (<system.net>)

<connectionManagement>
<add address="*" maxconnection="1000"/>
</connectionManagement>
