The EQATEC Code Profiler is a dedicated lightweight performance optimization tool designed specifically to pinpoint speed bottlenecks in .NET applications without modifying your source code. Rather than tracking memory leaks or object allocations, its entire architecture focuses exclusively on measuring execution times and method call counts. Core Features
Precise Binary Instrumentation: Injecting monitoring hooks directly into compiled assemblies instead of relying on sampling methods yields exact execution metrics.
Full Method Call-Graphs: Detailed hierarchical trees visualize how methods trigger child operations to map the exact path of costly executions.
Zero Source Code Changes: Modifying your original C# or VB.NET code is unnecessary because the engine rewrites binary files on a post-compile basis.
Low Runtime Overhead: Applications experience minimal slowdown during active monitoring, typically adding under 30% execution time and 50% code size.
Multi-Framework Target Support: Native binaries can be monitored across the standard .NET Framework (2.0 and later), Silverlight, Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF), and Windows Phone 7.
Historical Run Comparison: Loading logs from separate execution cycles allows you to directly measure how subsequent optimizations impacted performance.
Command-Line Integration: Dedicated CLI commands let teams embed automated profiling steps straight into continuous integration auto-build pipelines. Key Metrics Tracked
The built-in analysis viewer breaks down system bottlenecks by organizing methods using five core performance columns: Measurement Scope Total (full)
Total elapsed time in milliseconds, including all nested child method executions. Avg (full)
The average time spent per method execution, counting nested child behaviors. Total (self)
Isolated execution time of the specific method, strictly excluding child calls. Avg (self) The isolated average processing time required per call. Calls
The exact frequency count of how many times a given method was executed.
(Note: While originally a standalone utility, EQATEC’s technologies were acquired by Telerik and integrated into legacy suites like Telerik JustTrace and Analytics platforms).
If you are trying to solve a specific performance issue, let me know:
What target framework or environment (e.g., .NET Core, Framework, Xamarin) you are using? Are you diagnosing a desktop, web, or mobile application?
Do you suspect your bottleneck is tied to CPU processing, memory consumption, or database calls?
I can recommend the most modern profiling workflows for your exact technology stack.
