Red Gate ANTS Performance Profiler

All the performance data you need in one tool

• From .NET code to database - see how your .NET code generates database calls and how they perform. Profile calls to any SQL Server or Oracle database, whether local or remote.
• HTTP request data - view your .NET methods grouped by the HTTP calls that caused them to run, adding additional contextual information to help you locate performance hotspots quickly.
• File I/O performance - get comprehensive performance information on your application's disk activity.

Handy features to help you get to the performance problem quickly

• 5 Profiling modes - choose from the fastest sampling and instrumentation modes available.
• Line-level timings - expensive lines of code are automatically highlighted for quick visual inspection, complete with precise timing information.
• Interactive timeline - get an at-a-glance overview of performance metrics over time, and select a region to view performance data for that region alone.
• Integrated decompilation - look inside third-party and framework code, using .NET Reflector technology to decompile methods and assemblies from the profiler interface.
• Powerful visualisations - the call graph displays how methods call each other, making it easier to understand your code's behavior.
• Automated profiling - include performance profiling in your automated test suite, by running ANTS through the command line as part of your build process.
• CPU and wall-clock timings - use CPU time for issues with your code or wall-clock time for performance issues outside your code.
• Save, print, export and share performance results - share results easily within your team, with management, or for auditing and reporting.
• Profile child processes - gather profiling information for any .NET process spawned by your application.
