    Can confirm. Have had to download the full VS 2022 Pro over a shit wifi connection at work 55GB. It took half a day then failed. Re run the command to recheck every package and get the missing / broken ones and it is a single threaded app so it takes forever computing file hashes on one thread.

    In the end it took around 7.5 hours.

        Everything. It’s going on a network not connected to the internet so I don’t want to exclude something and have go through the faff of getting extra bits that end up being needed.

          Fair enough! Not terribly surprised about the size then, though - there’s a lot of stuff VS can do. When limited to just a few workloads you need the size isn’t unreasonable in my opinion though.
