Does anyone know if a try...catch block affects the performance of the try block code? I know it has a performance hit on hitting the block, but I wonder if it has a continuing effect beyond that.

catch...

The problem is when Exceptions do occur it slows everything down. Though I think that is better than the WHOLE app crashing to a grinding halt and a .NET error message dialog showing then the Microsoft error reporting tool (if enabled) poping up.

I once worked on a project where the Project Lead insisted on try catch blocks in every bloody method.

I did some performance testing and could determine definitive costs with the setup and teardown of the block, but was unable to measure any discernable difference to the code internally.

However the code was entirely managed, perhaps wrapping unmanaged code has other implications.
