Question on Profiler

Hi,
I am running a .Net windows application. When I check the memory usuage of
that application in the windows task manager, it shows around 66MB. But when
I check the memory usuage using .NET memory profiler (a third party tool) it
shows only 4MB. Anybody have any idea why there is such a high discrepency?
Thanks,
Bhargavan

Your .NET profiler only shows the amount used by the managed heap, taskman
shows the Working set op your process, that is the size of all pages
actually mapped into your process space,that is:
native code of the CLR, C runtime, system loaded DLL's unmanaged heap space,
framework native code, managed assemblies loaded, JIT compiled code, managed
heap etc....

So what you are looking at in the profiler is only a small part of what's
actually mapped into your process space.

Hello all, I haven't been using profiler for a terribly long time, and I've come across something that I just can't figure out. I'm running MS Virtual PC to run a Win2K Server OS with SQL Server 2000 (sp3 i think). Whenever I start up SQL Profiler - even immediately after a bootup, if I try to pause, stop, or exit out of profiler, it hangs. The strange part is that it seems to keep on tracing even though it won't respond anymore. I...

Does anyone have an example of an application that can connect to a running process and capture Trace.WriteLine calls like in SQL Server Profiler? I know that we can inherit from a TraceListener class to write to files, databases, etc..., but I would really like to attach to running .NET processes and get the results without any logging and instead capture the real-time results when troubleshooting.

im trying to understand how the profiler works. so i started 2 profilers,one listen to another and I saw the profiler is running: exec sp_trace_create @P1 output, 1, NULL, NULL, NULL which means @tracefile = NULL so where from the profiler read the results?!

Can any-one recommend some good sites detailing how to code a simple memory profiler? How do they "look under the hood"? I built an uber simple service that tracks the process' memory but I need to "get inside" and look a bit deeper and I don't have a clue where to start ... a commercial memory profiler is not an option due the nature of the environment the application is deployed in .. My app runs fine for weeks (in 8 locations) but...

A few years ago I used a Profiler (I forget the name) on my Delphi code at the time and got fantastic results showing both: a) lines of code that took the longest to execute and b) lines of code that allocated the most unreleased memory. I have looked around and am unable to find a good tool to easily achieve these statistics for my C# Winforms application. Possible reasons are that: 1) I am having difficulty finding the existing...

Microsoft SQL Server Profiler is a graphical user interface to SQL Trace for monitoring an instance of the SQL Server Database Engine or Analysis Services.

I am using the CLR Profiler to investigate the memory efficiency of my .NET applications; however, I am puzzled as to the memory allocation size that the tool reports for my applications.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
