We have a fairly high volume ASP.Net site written in c# using MS commerce server, running in a 32-bit environment. I see the worker process up to 980 megabytes quite often. I would like to profile this process and determine where any gains could be made in code to reduce the memory foot print of this site. My question what tools have worked well for you doing this sort of thing on ASP.Net web applications?
I am looking for tools that will give me very specific feedback, that will really help to clearly see what needs to change in the code. It would be best if this tool could profile our production environment worker process for a more concrete set of data to compare.
[edit]
So far it seems the consensus is that it’s a toss up between Ants and JetBrains. Has anyone used both? If so which one was superior, or what are the pros and cons of each?
ANTS Profiler is very good at profiling ASP.NET applications.
