How do I use the profiler in Visual Studio 2008?

I know theres a build option in Config Properties -> Linker -> Advanced -> Profile (/PROFILE), however I can’t find anything about actauly using it, only articles I was able to find appear to only apply to older versions of Visual Studio (eg most say to goto Build->Profile to bring up the profile dialog box, yet in 2008 there is no such menu item).

Is this because Visual Studio 2008 does not include a profiler, and if it does where is it and where is the documentation for it?

  1. The profiler is only available in the Team System editions of Visual Studio 2008. The last version that I used that included a profiler was Visual C++ 6.0.

    For Visual Studio 2005, you could try Compuware DevPartner Performance Analysis Community Edition.
