Find memory leaks fast, with ANTS Memory Profiler™ 5
You check Task Manager and you can see your application is using too much memory. Is your application holding on to too many objects? Or maybe you've got a memory leak? Use a memory profiler to find out what is going on:
- Locate memory leaks within minutes
- Optimize high memory usage applications
- Get results fast – The profiler can comfortably profile large, complex applications, with virtually no overhead. Take as many snapshots of the heap memory as you like, and get results in seconds.
- Zero in rapidly on common causes of memory leaks – Powerful filtering options allow you to focus on common causes of memory leaks, enabling you to quickly get to the root of the problem.
- Find out why your leaking objects are still being held in memory – Use the object retention graph to quickly see what is holding your objects in memory.
So, if you're programming in C# or VB.NET, and you need to understand where your memory is going, give ANTS Memory Profiler a try. It takes five minutes to download, install, and start using the tool.
"You will complete simple tasks in significantly less time if you choose ANTS Memory Profiler. This is something I will be using once per sprint to look for memory leaks."
Find out what's holding your objects in memory, with the Object Retention Graph. Use the graph to identify references which should not be there any longer (e.g. event handlers that have not been unregistered).
