Visual Studio 2015 - Debug ASP.NET MVC source code immediately on POST - asp.net-mvc

I'm having a problem with the default model binder being slow in my ASP.NET MVC web application on a specific controller. I'm looking to basically debug immediately when I hit the POST and see the ASP.NET MVC source code that is fired first (the model binder, etc.) before my controller's code.
How can I do this? I thought this should be an easy task but Google isn't turning anything up. I'm using Visual Studio 2015.

To debug ASP.NET MVC source code, it was related some debugging options under TOOLS->Options->Debugging.
It also was related to the Microsoft Symbols Server under TOOLS->Options->Debugging->Symbols.
So if you want to debug MVC source code or not, please enable/disable them, view the results.

Where are these poll requests from SignalR coming from?

I have a SPA application using Durandal.
My program starts to have a http request periodically:
http://localhost:1551/f9750d8f8aa54265835e72d56d23144a/arterySignalR/poll?transport=longPolling&connectionToken=AQAAANCMnd8BFdERjHoAwE%2FCl%2BsBAAAACM1YyjLngEiQsL54ET%2B%2FqwAAAAACAAAAAAADZgAAwAAAABAAAAAyZZfHz09psv64kIgPPwQNAAAAAASAAACgAAAAEAAAABMZImCidzdmb21ehxuGD4IoAAAAbazfW7CYR7y7HKb8JPt9ZH9b6fUDlZao60kBG662Vy%2Fb0IHwkwidthQAAAA1qSqnsCOheiNyXiINEyBPBAkqVg%3D%3D&messageId=d-79160814-B%2C0%7CC%2C4%7CD%2C0&requestUrl=http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%3A2690%2F&browserName=Firefox&tid=5&_=1391326350868
I don't know where does it come from? As I remember I haven't added any reference to SignalR or something like.
How can I check what part of my code is generating this request? and then remove it maybe.
The technologies I'm using are:
Durandal
ASP.NET MVC 4.0
Knockout
ASP.NET WebApi
This is coming from the browser link feature in Visual Studio 2013 in the Standard toolbar. It is code that allows Visual Studio to interact with browsers running the code, and should only show up when running it in debug mode.
To disable it (until the fix to the issue is made live in an upcoming update), follow the directions in #4 of the msdn page to disable it:
Uncheck "Enable Browser Link" in the Browser Link menu item
Set appSetting "vs:EnableBrowserLink" to "false" in web.config or debug=false.
Or you can just ignore it. It wont do any harm, will only happen locally, and should be fixed soon.

Scott Hanselman has a good guide on integrating MVC with a Web Form App, it should take you through the steps, here it is in a nutshell:
Run the Upgrade Wizard (open the Visual Studio2008 Web Application
in Visual Studio 2010)
Create a default ASP.NET MVC application for reference (you'll throw it away later)
Use a differencing tool like Beyond Compare to integrate the new web.config entries from the ASP.NET MVC sections into the upgraded ASP.NET WebForms application

Report Wizard in an MVC Application

After some research, I understand that we can use sql server reporting in an mvc application as long as the view engine is web form instead of razor.
The tutorial I have been trying to follow is:
Creating an ASP.net reporting using Visual Studio 2010
The problem is in Part 2. I cannot find the local classes listed as Data Source. The only choice is to set up a new xsd file to connect to the database. How can I have my reports to use my data repositories as their data source?
The credit goes to TNCodeMonkey!
Not only the project has to be compiled first, we must have an index.aspx file in the root folder of the MVC Web Application.
I don't know why. But the Data source is populated with all my dll's once that magic file is in place.

Creating a Basic MVC Project with Unit Tests in Visual Studio 2010

I wanted to set up an MVC 2 web application in Visual Studio 2010 using C# as the language. For that, I referred the link: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd410597.aspx and I created the same. When I ran the application by pressing F5, I got an error in my browser. I have attached the error information below.
Please help me to resolve this.
MVC is different from regular ASP.NET. In MVC you are using the http-address to tell your application which method to fire in which class.
In MVC language methods are called "Actions". And classes are called "Controllers" (ruffly speaking).
If you want the first view to show, you will have to tell the class "HomeController" to perform its method "Index()".
You do this by entering the address: "localhost/Home/Index"
Please read more here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd410269(VS.98).aspx
If your controller is called MapsController with an ViewMaps action as shown in the tutorial then you should navigate to /maps/viewmaps in your browser to execute this action.
