Heya all,
I've been looking around for a decent way to measure the time it takes to execute my code. I have seen some people on various sites will do this programmatically using the Stopwatch class to measure the time it takes to execute the code within, but I was wondering if there is a better method of measuring the time taken.

Any suggestions like plug-ins or tools?

Cheers guys.

The higher versions of Visual studio has a profiler[^]. It is more than just finding time, the tree view helps you dig deep and find out how your methods are called and you can do a lot of anylysis with that data.

I have also used ants profiler.[^] and that also provides a lot of feautures.

You also have the clr profiler[^] (its free). It takes up a lot of memory and hard disk space, but it gives you a lot of information. It shows you how many objects are created, how much memory it used and a lot more useful information.
