I am attempting to use perfmon in XPe to monitor memory usage of our primary
application. When I check the log produced by perfmon, all of the entries
are blank. In particular, I am looking at "# of bytes in all heaps" for a
particular process in the ".NET Memory" category.
1) What components do I need to include in build to use perfmon? (Maybe I am
missing one or more components?)
2) When I attempt to start a collection in perfmon mmc panel, sometimes I
get an error message that the collection could not be started and I should
check the event log. When I try to check the event log, I am supposed to be
able to start it with either > eventvwr.exe or > mmc.exe
X:\windows\system32\eventvwr.msc, but neither of these work. What
component(s) do I need for the event viewer?

Thanks all
Steve
 
The event viewer is contained in Software::System::System
Services::Base::Administration Support Tools. This component has a
large number of dependencies, and may significantly increase the size
of your build. You may want to save a copy of the .slx file before
adding this component and resolving dependencies.

Performance Monitor is contained in Software::System::System
Services::Base::Performance Monitor

USING FILTERS TO FIND COMPONENTS:
----------------------------------------------------
BTW, the easy way to find a component is to create a filter in Target
Designer.
Open TD, click on the funnel to the right of the "Filter" window.
Create a new filter called "Component Contains File", add the
"Component Contains File" rule to the filter, type in the file name.
OK your way out, and then click "Apply" to see the corresponding list
of components.

To find the performance monitor, just modify the existing rule by
changing the file name that it is searching for (Search for
"perfmon.exe")
