Performance Profiler tool

The Performance Profiler is useful when determining which part of the process might be having performance issues, or identifying the particular step of a data transform or activity that might have a performance issue.

When you use the Performance Profiler, you first record readings of the application's performance, and then you analyze the readings to identify problems.

The Performance Profiler is available in Dev Studio on the Performance landing page (Configure > System > Performance > Performance Profiler) or from the Performance tool in the toolbar.
