In case anyone is interested, the faster FakeItEasy 1.19.0 startup does indeed seem to be faster. I started using 1.19.0 at the Day Job today, and got these results for a test run in the IDE (ReSharper test runner):
shadow copies | no shadow copies | |
---|---|---|
1.18.0 | 5.9s | 2.5s |
1.19.0 | 0.86s | 0.63s |
