If you google for clr-profiler, you'll get MS's CLR profiler. It's not the
best, but it is free.

The Microsoft one has a lot of pretty colors, but for simply finding in
which method most of the runtime is spent, I prefer nprof.

Uh, the MS CLR Profiler is a memory profiler, not a runtime profiler.
You'll need to run both kinds of profilers to properly optimize your
application. CompuWare (formerly NuMega) offers a free version of the
runtime profiler included in the DevPartner suite:
