None. I've been curious to, but haven't gotten around to it yet. Marc

Red Gate Ants Profiler. It's been pretty good; they've got some instrumentation errors dealing with some advanced generics that have been show-stoppers for us. But the support has been great and they're prompt to answer and help you solve the problem. The tool itself, which includes both a performance profiler and a memory profiler, are great. I definitely recomment it.

I use JetBrains dotTrace[^], and I like it a lot. It has both perf and memory profiling, and has a lot of different views on the data it gathers, as well as good filtering and visual indicators.

ants by red gate software. it does the job, no complaints other than one: it has a service that runs *all the time* whether you are debugging or running visual studio or whatever. While it's probably not an issue and maybe not even unique to them it bugs the hell out of me when there is stuff running on my computer that doesn't need to be.

I like the Jet Brains profiler. It's got some nice views that help you find bottlenecks fast.
