Brian Johnson has posted up a link to the CLR Profiler for .NET 2.0 BETA 2. I’ve been hanging out for this for quite some time. The user interface is largely unchanged except for a new switchboard to decide which graph you want to look at.
Personally – I think that the CLR Profiler is a great tool - even better than some of the commercial profilers out there, it should definately be in every .NET developers kit bag. I recommend running the profiler once a week to see how you are doing from an object application point of view.
Fewer allocations = fewer garbage collections = more CPU cycles for your code = better application performance.
