What problem does it solve?

ResolveProjectReferences time in MSBuild diagnostics can be misleading when it appears as the largest target because it includes waiting for dependent projects. This skill teaches how to interpret that time and focus on the true self-time to identify real bottlenecks.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Interpret when ResolveProjectReferences appears as a major time sink and understand that it may mainly reflect build waiting for other projects.
  • Guide users to rely on Task Performance Summary to measure actual work, and to examine self-time of tasks such as Csc, ResolveAssemblyReference, and Copy for optimization opportunities.
  • Provide actionable guidance for MSBuild performance tuning to avoid direct optimization of ResolveProjectReferences.

Quick Start

Review the Task Performance Summary alongside the Target Performance Summary to locate where time is spent and apply the guidance to optimize the actual work rather than waiting.
