Can anyone describe what the IDE is doing when you run a single test that has been defined? When I start a single test for the first time, the IDE just sits there, taking a few minutes before it starts compiling. When it complies, I can see what it is doing in the output window. Once I see that, I get my desired results. This slowdown appears anytime the IDE has to recompile.

If I switch to using TestDriven.Net, when I start a test, the compiling start immediately, there is no waiting. Why would TestDriven.Net be that much faster to start up?

I verified I am running the same test for both instances. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
