Does anyone knows if I will be able to safely upgrade from RC to RTM?
I would like to try VS2017, but I have been burned out by the upgrade progress to RTM in the past and can't be bothered trying it in a VM...

My experience from the past says: maybe. RC to RTM upgrade mostly works, but some cruft lays around or isn't done correctly. My advice is to put in RC in a VM or separate boot partition.

Yeah, I really went out on a limb with that one!

Nobody knows it. It probably depends on how fast Microsoft will release RTM build of Visual Studio 2017. As far as I can understand you want to perform a safe upgrade to RTM build, but I would not do it. Just, remove your VSS2015 and setup the new Visual Studio 2017 RTM at the time it will be available for download. 
P.S. Thanks for notification of Visual Studio 2017 is about to be ready to the market.

I wonder if this is a correct inference from what has been said on this thread. In my experience, the transitions in MS software tools between RC and first release, are slippery when wet, and always wet.
«There is a spectrum, from "clearly desirable behaviour," to "possibly dodgy behavior that still makes some sense," to "clearly undesirable behavior." We try to make the latter into warnings or, better, errors. But stuff that is in the middle category you don’t want to restrict unless there is a clear way to work around it.» Eric Lippert, May 14, 2008

I'm not expecting a seamless upgrade.
I'd already tried Preview ?, Preview ?, RC, and kept disappointed.
The extension system was not compatible with the one in 2015. My current favorite extensions were not running on it, which became the major drawback for me to try out its features.

I usually do complete system clean install when new VS RTMs

If he can't be arsed to try it in a VM, do you really think this is going to be an option for him?

Indeed!

I was still in the mindset that my only profiling options were:
- (excellent): Redgate ANTS profiler.
- (barely acceptable) VS 2015 inbuild profiling (better than before though)
But a colleague of mine, without initial prejudice, did a google search and lo and behold, a really good and "free" .NET profiler: NProfiler™ - A fast, extremely accurate .NET profiler[^]
I used quote since they have various distribution: community, pro, etc.. with different pricing.
Community is still perfect for home coding, free and a great profiling option!

I will check out the profiler. here's another...
SharpDev Studio has had a free profiler available in it since at least 2010 (way before MS & VStudio)
SharpDevelop @ic#code[^]
It has some really fantastic tools that let you see user mode v kernel mode calls and drill down into the performance and instantly see where the lags are. It's really nice for free.
There is very little or no docs on it though so probably why it has been missed.
|
|
|
|
|
Really?
I kind of dropped SharpDev since Visual Studio counter attacked with the community edition!
But nice to know anyway!

That's funny, because that was my experience too.
The SharpDev profiler is better than the VStudio one though, for real.

Just had a quick look at the store page.
Report looks good, but.. no free version.. 
i.e. NProfiler win!
|
|

Freeware doesn't always means that it's a good ware. For serious development, I would better not to use it, but using the commercially distributed .NET profiling applications. 
|
|

Still not free, but if you buy Resharper Ultimate you get it as part of the package (along with dotMemory and dotCover).
Also just looked at your link, and NProfiler isn't free, unless you're a student (or an Open Source maintainer). In which case, all of JetBrains tools are also free.

It's fully-integrated with Visual Studio, displaying the duration of each function call in your code.

Maybe worth to post it in: Free Tools Discussion Boards[^]?
