It is a Profile and boost the performance of your .NET applications

ANTS Performance Profiler is an application profiler for .NET desktop, ASP.NET, and ASP.NET MVC applications:
Find performance bottlenecks fast by profiling both the .NET code and the data access layer
Get rich performance data, right-down to line-level timings and expensive database queries
Save time going round in circles diagnosing and debugging – let the profiler do the hard work for you
Explore unfamiliar code bases
NEW! Enhanced data access profiling: added support for profiling MySQL (or MariaDB) and PostgreSQL, so you can see queries run against those databases too

Drill down to slow lines of code with line-level timings
Profile C# or any other .NET code line by line, with precise timing data so you can find issues at a glance. Expensive lines of code are automatically highlighted for quick visual inspection.

Jump straight to the slowest activity
The call tree shows performance data for every method and identifies the most expensive methods, database queries, and web requests.

Capture outgoing web requests *
Look at your application's outgoing http requests. Get data about the request and response headers, and see what .NET code caused them to run.

Look at your code's database interaction *
Understand how your .NET code makes database queries and how those queries perform. ANTS Performance Profiler supports SQL Server and Oracle databases, whether local or remote.

Immediate feedback on application performance
Use the interactive timeline to check the CPU usage of your .NET or ASP.NET application and highlight problem areas to focus only on the data that matters.
Group methods by HTTP request *

Code and database activity are grouped by HTTP request, exposing performance problems on specific web pages.

Profile async code
Understand the performance of C#5 async code. View activity in the context of the code you wrote, and see how work being done asynchronously is related to the async method which caused it to run.

Decompile third-party code *
Find bottlenecks in 3rd party components and framework assemblies using integrated decompilation, powered by .NET Reflector.

.NET developers use ANTS Memory Profiler to:Find memory leaks within minutes
Optimize the memory usage of your C# and VB.NET code
Profile your code's use of unmanaged memory
Create better performing, less resource-intensive applications
Available as a standalone tool or as part of our .NET Developer Bundle
Why ANTS Memory Profiler?


Automatic memory management in .NET makes development a lot easier, but it's still easy to introduce memory leaks into your application. For example, forgetting to unregister event handlers can lead to significant chunks of memory being held on to unnecessarily, but spotting that this is happening can be very difficult.

Trying to understand memory problems without a suitable tool can take hours or days, if you're lucky enough to know a problem exists. This is time which would be better spent fixing the problem.

A tool every .NET developer should use
ANTS Memory Profiler makes memory profiling simple. With it, you can:
Obtain clear, meaningful results, making it easier for you to interpret the information. Spend your time fixing problems instead of struggling to understand them.
Get results fast – with a footprint of less than 32 MB, the profiler can comfortably profile large, complex applications, with virtually no overhead. Take as many snapshots of the heap memory as you like, in seconds rather than minutes.
Quickly visualize the relationship between your objects – use the instance retention graph to quickly see why your leaking objects are still being held in memory. You don't have to build a mental map to keep track of how objects reference each other.
Go straight to the source of the problem - intelligent analysis highlights the most likely causes of issues, often saving hours of problem-hunting.
Zero in fast on the causes of memory leaks – powerful filtering options allow you to cut through the noise, enabling you to quickly get to the root of even the most complex problems.
