DbContext slow on debug build

Question

^{Note: I've seen this, but I don't have Intellitrace as I'm on Pro, not Ultimate}

When I run my application on a debug build, it takes a long time to open the DBContext for the first time. Then it has the expected slightly larger amount of lag afterwards. In the Release build, it's about 20x faster. My app is a WPF app, relying on the EF6-SQLite converter from Brice Lambson's blog and a local database (SSD, so no real storage bottleneck). I'm running VS2013 Pro from Dreamspark. It's compiled to MSIL (All CPU). Any help?

6.0.2 isn't making it better. – It'sNotALie. Dec 13 '13 at 08:42

It improves it a but not much. Well, it varies. Sometimes it runs flawlessly, sometimes it's nearly as slow as before. – It'sNotALie. Dec 14 '13 at 00:31
