Xperf, a new tool in the Windows SDK

Richard Russell (aka RGR) of the Windows Fundamentals team has posted a really nice description of Windows Performance Tool Kit, a new tool we're shipping with the latest version of the Windows SDK.

As he says, "Xperf is an important tool for anyone doing system performance work on Windows because it's specifically designed to give you a complete system-wide view of performance over long periods of time (10's of seconds, to minutes). It's also the only tool that knows how to fully process all the events from the kernel and correlate them into something that makes sense."

If you're interested at all in Windows performance tuning, you'll probably find this tool to be quite useful. Remember, if you're only interested in SDK tools, there's no need to download the full Windows SDK. You can select only the Tools node in the download. This tool is one of approximately a hundred tools we ship in the SDK, along with samples, documentation, headers, libraries, compilers and other files.

And please remember to send us feedback on your experience. Your help will make us better.
