I'm using Visual Studio 2008 Professional edition and I don't have the "Analyze" menu to profile the execution of my application. Does anyone know any good/free tool which can be used instead of the original profiler of VS2008?

Tips for optimizing C#/.NET programs The interesting thing about this is there's no formal, statistical, or practical sense in which any profiling tool will do a better job, or at least not that I've heard.

I tried many free profilers; but using the trial version of dotTrace and red-gate ants convinced me that getting a good tool requires money.

What are you looking for? Pretty UI? Lots and lots of statistics? or *results*? [If you're after results, try this.](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/375913/what-can-i-use-to-profile-c-code-in-linux/378024#378024) And don't take my word for it - check the last paragraph [here](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4832642/when-is-optimization-premature/4832698#4832698). – Mike Dunlavey Mar 07 '11 at 03:46

You can use the free Microsoft CLR Profiler.

Can this be used for .Net 3.5? In the link it says Framework 2.0 – DeveloperInToronto Dec 17 '10 at 16:05

Why the downvote? Also downvoting without a comment is a jerk move. – DarrellNorton Aug 10 '13 at 10:17
