+With [Visual Studio 17.7 Preview 3](https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/preview/), you can try precaching of Visual Studio solutions for Microsoft Dev Box. When loading projects, Visual Studio indexes files and generates metadata to enable the full suite of [IDE](/visualstudio/get-started/visual-studio-ide) capabilities. As a result, Visual Studio can sometimes take a considerable amount of time when loading large projects for the first time. With Visual Studio caches on dev box, you can now pregenerate this startup data and make it available to Visual Studio as part of your customized dev box image. This means that when you create a dev box from a custom image including Visual Studio caches, you can log onto a Microsoft Dev Box and start working on your project immediately.
