Changes in version 4.5 from 4.0:


  • New feature: object allocation recording allows to track where live objects are created and detect performance problems caused by massive creation of temporarily objects

    Allocation telemetry is available. Also, you can capture a memory snapshot to perform comprehensive analysis.

  • New feature: an ability to separate objects in memory snapshot by garbage collector generations

  • Improved Welcome screen. Simplified setup of profiling modes.

  • Improved Welcome screen. "Monitor Local Applications" panel provides an option to see all .NET applications running on the machine, including those not started with the profiler agent. This greatly helps troubleshooting possible connection problems.

  • Improved Visual Studio integration: ability to launch the profiler from Visual Studio main toolbar

  • Improved navigation to source code in Visual Studio. In particular, navigation works for generic classes.
  • Stability improvements

AWARDS
JDJ Editors' Choice Award Winner YourKit Java Profiler received the Java Developer's Journal Editors' Choice Award.
"I had to collect data about a memory leak that happen over several hours of time in the production server. Using other profilers this was not possible since they kept on crashing. Using YourKit this was amazingly easy. It just ran in the background and I gathered statistics at certain moments in time and then compared them against each-other. YourKit is a really nice profiler and I use it now."
