ETW

In the previous video learned the basics of using the event viewer. In this video we use that knowledge in a common scenario: investigating the performance of an ASP.NET server scenario. The video discusses the ASP.NET ETW events as well important fields like the 'ContextID' field that let you…

In the first tutorial we used the 'Run' command to caputure data while an executable ran. In tutorial 2-5 we learned how to use the StackViewer to do a CPU investigation. In this tutorial we learn more about a very different view called the EventViewer that allows you to look at ALL the data in each…

In the first tutorial we used the 'Run' command to caputure data while an executable ran.   However for server scenarios you simply want to explicitly state when to start and stop data collection.   It is also likely that you will need to ask someone else…
