About this software
ANTS Performance Profiler is a Windows-based profiler for .NET applications that helps developers identify CPU and memory bottlenecks and inefficient database calls. It captures execution with timeline and call-tree views to reveal slow methods and query timings.
Designed for developers and performance engineers, the tool integrates with development workflows to diagnose runtime issues in desktop, web, and service applications on Windows.

Frequently asked questions
What application types does Redgate ANTS Performance Profiler support?
Designed for managed .NET applications, it can profile web applications such as ASP.NET and desktop or server .NET processes to analyze performance.
How does Redgate ANTS Performance Profiler identify performance bottlenecks?
It collects timing, CPU and memory allocation information plus call stacks to reveal slow methods, hot paths, and high-allocation areas contributing to poor performance.
Can it analyze database queries and external I/O in application profiles?
Profiling includes external calls such as database queries and I/O operations, allowing correlation of those calls with application call stacks and timing impact.
How are profiling results inspected and compared over time?
Results are captured as profiling sessions and can be inspected to view method timings, memory allocations and call trees; multiple sessions can be compared to track changes.
What performance overhead should be expected when profiling applications?
Profiling introduces runtime overhead that can affect execution timings; sampling or targeted profiling reduces impact, and use in controlled environments is recommended for accurate diagnosis.
