If you need to debug just applications you can build an image using the Virtual PC BSP. It provides better performances than the ARM emulator. You can connect using TCP/IP and even copy data files by mounting the VHD file in your machine if you have a Windows 7/8 PC.
Slow emulation when using self-built WinCE6 image

Question
I'm trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong: Using Microsoft's Device Emulator 3.0 with one of the included WM6.5 runs fine and feels quite responsive, even when debugging own (.net-)applications.
But if I try an own custom image, the user interface inside the emulator is extremely unresponsive and sometimes it takes two seconds for WinCE to register a simple click on a UI button.
There are no informative kernel debug prints...
Details:
- Platform Builder for WinCE6R2
- ARMV5 Emulation target
- Industrial control template with minimal options
- Release build
- Emulator options: 128MB RAM, NE2000 emulation, 480x272x16 video settings
Is there anything I can take a look at to further troubleshoot this issue?
