C++ Server is slower when built with VS2008

Question

Our server program is a very large C++ program (100s of files, millions of lines).
It implements a propritary in-memory database, which can be 10GB and bigger.

Certain of our benchmarks are 5-10% slower when compiled with VS2008, than with VS2005.

Answer 1

This question is probably better asked over on the general C++ forum, this forum is for parallel programming in C++, not general build or compiler issues.
