New ANTS Profiler Integrates With Visual Studio, Placing Better Performance a Mouse Click Away.CAMBRIDGE, U.K. -- Red Gate Software has released a new version of ANTS Profiler that is fully integrated with Visual Studio, making it easier and faster to optimize performance for applications written in any of the languages available on the .NET framework. With ANTS Profiler V3, developers do not need to leave Visual Studio 2003 or 2005 to pinpoint performance bottlenecks within their applications. A click of a button launches ANTS Profiler within seconds, with the executable path already set. Context sensitivity lets users set up what method, class or namespace A collection of names for a particular purpose. Typically, each name is unique. For example, tables in a relational database must all have unique names. A Windows workgroup that uses the original NetBIOS naming system requires a different "made-up" name for each computer and printer in they want to profile, without having to remember its name. Freedom of choice ANTS Profiler V3 provides both fast and detailed modes of profiling. The fast mode runs more than 10 times faster than detailed mode, providing a quick overview of how long it takes each method to execute. The detailed, or line-level, mode shows how long each line of code takes to execute. This enables developers to identify the exact lines of code The statements and instructions that a programmer writes when creating a program. One line of this "source code" may generate one machine instruction or several depending on the programming language. A line of code in assembly language is typically turned into one machine instruction. that are causing performance bottlenecks. A new API New API (also referred to as NAPI) is an interface to use interrupt mitigation techniques for networking devices in the Linux kernel. Such an approach is intended to reduce the overhead of packet receiving. within ANTS Profiler V3 also provides greater flexibility, allowing users to disable the profiler within their code, take snapshots, and reset the profiler exactly where they want within their application. "ANTS Profiler V3 works the way a developer wants to work," says Richard Mitchell Richard Mitchell may refer to:
ROI (Return On Investment) The monetary benefits derived from having spent money on developing or revising a system. In the IT world, there are more ways to compute ROI than Carter has liver pills (and for those of you who never heard of that expression, it means a lot). in minutes "The new ANTS Profiler paid for itself in the first 10 minutes after downloading and installing," says David Takahashi of Pitney Bowes' Group 1 Software. "I had a performance problem, but I didn't know where it was. The first run of ANTS Profiler showed me exactly where it was; subsequent runs showed me where I could focus my performance-boosting work. This is an invaluable tool to have in your programming tool chest." Advanced support, immediate availability ANTS Profiler V3 provides additional support for the following: * 64-bit systems * IIS (Internet Information Services) Microsoft's Web server. IIS runs under the server versions of Windows, adding HTTP server capability to the Windows operating system. 7 on Windows Vista The current version of Windows for the desktop.
