Answer 1

You must be using a lot of unnecessary references in your project. Just go to the references section and delete those extra references.

Answer 2

There should be no problem with large/many .cs files. I have also solutions with 20 projects, some of these projects have many many files and some of these files have 2k - 5k lines of code. And I've no problem typing new code, there is no noticeable delay. Perhaps it's only because of slow hardware?
