Instruction Pointers (IPs) View - Profiler Sampling Data

The IPs view of sampling data lists performance data for the assembly instructions that were directly executing when the samples were collected in the profiling run.

Note

Enhanced security features in Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012 required significant changes in the way the Visual Studio profiler collects data on these platforms. Windows Store apps also require new collection techniques. See Profiling Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012 applications.
