title: VS2013 C++ : slow linking process
body: <p>Have you ever experienced a slow linking process in a C++ project compile (I'm using VS2013)? I get linking process taking 15 minutes after a 5 minutes Build. A Rebuild or Visual Studio restart does not fix the issue. 
  Task manager shows mspdbsrv.exe taking a full core (25% on a 4-core), and pdb file creation is very slow, Kb after Kb it reaches 50 Mb.
  Additional info:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>the same project on another computer build and link in acceptable time.</li>
  <li>antivirus is disabled</li>
  <li>I've tried changing the pdb file creation location: no success</li>
  <li>I've set the linker output Verbose, but it stops at one debug row and then wait all the time there.</li>
  <li>VS2013 is updated to SP4</li>
  <li>Hard disk activity led on my laptop is mostly turned off, so there's no full activity on the disk.</li>
  <li>I'm running Windows 7 Pro.</li>
  <li>VS2013 is run with administrator rights</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>Thank you.</p>
