There is no doubt that the VS2008 startup time is more than doubled when Resharper is installed.
Has anyone found any way to mitigate Resharper's penalty at least a little.

I think the best way would be to use an SSD drive or really fast disk drive. I don't have one though :-(
I use a Vista Ultimate 64 bit, Intel quad core machine with 8GB of RAM to speed it up. :-)
Probably more RAM would improve the speed. How much do you have now?
I have used Resharper on a dual core with 2GB of RAM, and I could definitely tell there was a slowdown.
I can see no noticeable performance hit on my current machine though.
Give a try to ReSharper 4.5 Nightly Builds because they are supposed to be better at performance and mean on memory consumption
