VS2010: Profiling In Progress (PIP)

  • Bài viết

With Visual Studio 2010 we want to make it clearer when you are profiling your application within the Visual Studio IDE. To accomplish this we added a new control which we call ‘Profiling In Progress’ or PIP, which we show when you launch the profiler or attach the profiler to a running application.

Our goal was to show something simple and lightweight while profiling and to make a few simple operations possible. PIP in VS2010 is shown below:

pip_1Currently profiling. Pause profiling. Stop profiling or exit the application to generate a report.

The progress/spin control indicates that the UI is responding and there are two links:

  • Pause profiling, which changes to ‘Resume profiling’ when clicked. This has the same effect as clicking on the ‘Pause profiling’ button in the Performance Explorer.
  • Stop profiling, which kills the application and finishes profiling.

After profiling completes, PIP changes to show that we are about to open the report.

pip_2 Preparing to open report… This might take a while if your symbol server is slow or not responding.
