Links to Recent PerfView Videos ***** Defrag Tools (Nov-2014 - Jan-2015)

  • Article

Starting a couple of Defrag Tools #113 - PerfView Part 1months ago I did a series of Channel 9 Videos as part of Andrew Richards and Chad Beeder's 'Defrag tools' series.

I notice recently that these videos don't really show up in web searches when you use the 'PerfView' keyword, so I thought I would help people find them by putting some links in this blog entry.

Much of the material will be familiar to those who have watched my other PerfView videos, but some of it is new, and the descriptions below should be enough to decide if you already know the material or not. 

Anyway here they are

  • Defrag Tools #113 - PerfView Part 1  - COLLECTION - Collecting ETW data with PerfView, stopping on particular events
  • Defrag Tools #114 - PerfView Part 2 -  STACK VIEWER - Looking at the data (whirlwind, you should watch the PerfView Tutorial if you are serious), brief comparison to Windows Performance Analyst (WPA)

    That is in the works.   Hopefully before the summer is out.

    Exactly the same thought after watching the second part - open source, maybe?

    We have made progress on making PerfView open source, but other priorities are trumping this in the short term.   Most likely we can make progress during the holiday lull.
