Profs for C#?

[Joseph Kormann]

In Unix, there's a utility called 'profs' which analyses running code to see
which functions and methods are called frequently and how long they're
called. Is there such a utility available for C# code?

Thanks,

It's called a profiler and there are several, although I believe most are
only memory profilers (allocations, gcs and so forth). I recommend doing a
search, there's bound to be one or two that do what you want.

Hi Joseph

A profiler is the tool that you are looking for, and yes there are a couple
for .NET , I have tested a couple of them and I think that AQTime is one of
the best if not the best you can download an evaluation version from
www.automatedqa.com , also check this article from MSDN:

Hope this help,

ANTS is a profiler I downloaded and evaluated. I didn't really need to use
it but in one place, so I didn't get very in depth, but it seemed to work
very well, and it was *very* clear and intuitive.
