Additional profiling tools for Visual Studio (or cmdline)?
Two questions really:
1) I'm using the Visual Studio Diagnostic tools to do memory snapshots and look at CPU usage, but one thing I'd really like to do is literally get all the methods in my code listed by the number of times they are called, mainly to review my methods and locate any that are being called way too many times than I expect them to be. I imagine it's quite expensive to track this but I didn't see an obvious way to get this info with the Diag tools
2) What other third-party tools/plugins/etc do you use or would reccomend for finding opportunities for optimizations in my code?

third party tools i can recommend are the ones by jetbrains
dotmemory/dottrace are awesome.
though if you arent eligable for cheaper/free version and dont want to pay the money, VS can cover you aswell even if its more involved and dont have fancy graphs
to get the callcount + time spend in methods you use in the performace profiler "instumentation" or something like that
Ah great, I found the callcounts in instrumentation - thanks
