• Summary information for the profiling session, individual snapshots, and snapshot comparisons.
• Powerful filtering options to narrow your search down to the objects you really need to know about.
• Unique Instance categorizer automatically groups together all instances of a class which are being held in memory for the same reason.

• Compare any two snapshots with each other.
• One-step set-up dialog.
• Automated API for taking snapshots from within your application using a single line of code.
