Functions View - Profiler .NET Memory Instrumentation Data

The Functions view of .NET memory allocation profiling data that was collected with the instrumentation method lists the functions that allocated memory during the profiling run. A function row reports the size and number of allocations, and the timing data for the function.

General

Column

Description

Function Name

The name of the function.

Function Address

The address of the function.

Function Line Number

The line number of the start of this function in the source file.

Number of Calls

The total number of calls made to this function.

Source File

The source file that contains the definition of this function.

Module Name

The name of the module that contains the function.

Module Path

The path of the module that contains the function.

Process ID

The process ID (PID) of the profiling run.

Process Name

The name of the process.

Time Exclusive Probe Overhead

The time overhead for this function due to instrumentation. Probe overhead has been subtracted from all exclusive times.

Time Inclusive Probe Overhead

The time overhead for this function and its child functions due to instrumentation. Probe overhead has been subtracted from all inclusive times.

.NET Memory Values

The inclusive .NET memory values of a function indicate the number (allocations) and size (bytes) of objects that were created by the function and its child functions.

The exclusive memory values indicate the number and size of objects that were created by the function and not by its child functions.

Column

Description

Inclusive Allocations

The total number of objects created in this function and and functions that were called by this function.

Inclusive Allocations %

The percentage of all objects allocated in the profiling run that were inclusive allocations of this function.

Exclusive Allocations

The total number of objects created when the function was executing code in the function body. This number does not include objects created in functions that were called by this function.

Exclusive Allocations %

The percentage of all objects created in the profiling run that were exclusive allocations of this function.

Inclusive Bytes

The number of bytes of memory allocated in this function and in functions that were called by this function.

Inclusive Bytes %

The percentage of all bytes of memory allocated in the profiling run that were inclusive bytes of this function.

Exclusive Bytes

The number of bytes of memory allocated by this function but not by functions that were called by this function.

Exclusive Bytes %

The percentage of all bytes of memory allocated in the profiling run that were exclusive bytes of this function.

Elapsed Inclusive Values

Elapsed inclusive values indicate the time that a function was on the call stack. The time includes time that was spent in child functions and in calls to the operating system, such as context switches and input/output operations.

Column

Description

Elapsed Inclusive Time

The total elapsed inclusive time of all calls to this function.

Elapsed Inclusive Time %

The percentage of the total elapsed inclusive time of the profiling run that was spent in the elapsed inclusive time of this function.

Avg Elapsed Inclusive Time

The average elapsed inclusive time of a call to this function.

Max Elapsed Inclusive Time

The maximum elapsed inclusive time of a call to this function.

Min Elapsed Inclusive Time

The minimum elapsed inclusive time of a call to this function.

Elapsed Exclusive Values

Elapsed exclusive values indicate the time that a function was directly executing at the top of the call stack. The time includes time in calls to the operating system, such as context switches and input/output operations, but it does not include time that was spent in child functions.

Column

Description

Elapsed Exclusive Time

The total elapsed exclusive time of all calls to this function.

Elapsed Exclusive Time %

The percentage of the total elapsed exclusive time of the profiling run that was spent in the total elapsed exclusive time of this function.

Avg Elapsed Exclusive Time

The average elapsed exclusive time of a call to this function.

Max Elapsed Exclusive Time

The maximum elapsed exclusive time of a call to this function.

Min Elapsed Exclusive Time

The minimum elapsed exclusive time of a call to this function.

Application Inclusive Values

Application inclusive values indicate the time that a function was on the call stack. The time does not include time that was spent in calls to the operating system, such as context switches and input/output operations, but it does include time that was spent in child functions.

Column

Description

Application Inclusive Time

The total application inclusive time of all calls to this function.

Application Inclusive Time %

The percentage of the total elapsed inclusive time of the profiling run that was spent in the total application inclusive time of this function.

Avg Application Inclusive Time

The average application inclusive time of a call to this function.

Max Application Inclusive Time

The maximum application inclusive time of a call to this function.

Min Application Inclusive Time

The minimum application inclusive time of a call to this function.

Application Exclusive Values

Application exclusive values indicate the time that a function was directly executing at the top of the call stack. The time does not include time that was spent in calls to the operating system, such as context switches and input/output operations, nor does it include time that was spent in child functions.

Column

Description

Application Exclusive Time

The total application exclusive time of all calls to this function.

Application Exclusive Time %

The percentage of the total elapsed exclusive time of the profiling run that was spent in the total application exclusive time of this function.

Avg Application Exclusive Time

The average application exclusive time of a call to this function.

Max Application Exclusive Time

The maximum application exclusive time of a call to this function.

Min Application Exclusive Time

The minimum application exclusive time of a call to this function.
