Why would Visual Studio all of a sudden start using tons of CPU as it tries to implement Intellisense? I happen to be working with LINQ queries in VB.NET, but no idea if that's related or not. I've tried closing and reopening VS, but that has no effect. I'm not sure what else it might be related to, which makes researching it difficult as well. Any ideas where to start looking?

Are you using WIX projects at all? I have had a problem with Wix setup projects causing pegged CPU after opening them.

Nope. This is a MVC project.

How about this for a starting place. Check out "C:\Documents and Settings\<userName>\Application Data\Microsoft\VisualStudio\<versionNumber>". I suggest making a backup then clearing out the folders. There are also folders in Local Settings, but I believe these are user-interface related, such as tool box items.
