ANTS Profiler™
Walk-through 2: Memory profiling
This walk-through will show you:
- Setting up a project
- How to profile memory
- Viewing and understanding results
- Sorting, filtering, and grouping results
Step 5: Viewing the results
The ANTS Profiler window initially shows a Summary of the results for the last snapshot. The Summary contains basic information about your application, along with the 10 Biggest live objects and 10 Classes with most live instances. You can click on any of the links in the Biggest live objects list to navigate to particular objects.
The Results pane (on the right of the screenshot above) shows the two sets of results captured. You can switch between the two sets of results by double-clicking each of the results in turn.
In this case, in the Classes with the most live instances list, we see that the number of objects in the ShapePainter.RectangleShape class increases by 10 between the two snapshots.
