What tool do you use for memory profiling?

  • Thread starter Thread starter trant
  • Start date Start date
T

trant

I need to see why a program I wrote is taking so much memory.

I would like to see how it allocates memory to my objects so I can figure
out how to optimize it.

What tool do recommend for this task?

ANTS Profiler, if this is .NET (assume so, but there are quite a few people
that post non .NET questions to .NET groups).

If you just want to peek at processes, Process Explorer is free and can be
used in this manner. ANTS is designed to find the bits that use lots of
memory, however. I am sure you can Google other tools.

Peace and Grace,
