Editor's Notes
- Historically, performance and diagnostics tools have been scattered throughout the Visual Studio experience. While there were lots of tools to help developers solve the problems they were facing, they were often not discoverable and often provided inconsistent experiences. With Visual Studio 2013, an effort has been made to consolidate the tools and experience in order to simplify the process of measuring and troubleshooting apps
- In the Performance and Diagnostics hub you have the ability to create a new session. This session can launch a new app, attach to a running app, Web site, and so on.
- Once the app is running, you’ll get a wealth of performance and diagnostics data that can help you visualize potential issues with the application, as well as dig into all the profiling information you need.
