If you are having issues with SQL Prompt as it tries to cache databases with a very large number of schema objects, the following option is available to you.

As of SQL Prompt 5.3 you can edit %LOCALAPPDATA%\Red Gate\SQL Prompt 5\RedGate_SqlPrompt_Engine_EngineOptions.xml and change <MaxSupportedColumns> to a value like 2000000.

Any database with more than the configured total number of columns across all tables will just not be cached by SQL Prompt.
