Profiling embedded webbrowser control

Post by adeveloper »

Hello,

we have an application which has an embedded system.windows.forms.webbrowser.webbrowser control. The surrounding .NET app prepares a pretty large HTML content and passes it to the webbowser control for display and further editing. Now we need to optimize the whole processing time including the preparation of the HTML content and the loading time within the webbrowser control.

We then tried to profile our app with yourkit.net 2015 profiler and only saw the analysis for the .NET parts of the app (which is unfortunately only ~20% of the whole processing time). The problem is we cannot see anything anywhere about the processing time within the webbrowser control. Is there any way to see what is happening within the webbrowser control with yourkit?

Best regards

Hi,

Only managed code can be profiled. If the missed code is not managed (native), it unfortunately cannot be profiled.

Best regards,
Anton

Is there maybe any other tool which can help us with this? (We are really stuck at the moment :-( )

YourKit does not offer a native code profiler, sorry.
