As a side note: Resharper plays well with CodeSmart and C# Refactory installed on the same machine, but CANNOT coexist with CodeRush on the same machine. shame...
I couldn't agree more with your assesment of the product. It shows a lot a promise but the performance issue alone is enough for me to not use it. Also the is Visual Studio 2005 to consider where a lot a what ReSharper brings to the table is available for free.
Roy,
Have you tried ReSharper with the latest version of CodeRush (released last week)?
