Is there any profiler like visual studio profiler that works under Virtual Machine?

Question

Hello,

We are using ec2 lab to work on our product. The product currently I am working is written in LISP, Java, C/C++. It has a lot of components. My task is to profile it find performance bottleneck. I can load the C/C++ components in vs2008ts to compile it. As its a team system version, I can analyze it too. But the problem is visual studio profiler doesn't work on virtual environment.

So my question is, Is there any profiler that I can use in virtual envrironment? or is there any workaround for visual studio profiler??

Some necessary information

• Operating System: Windows Server 2003 R2
• Development Env: Visual Studio 2008 Team System
• Physical Memory: 7.5GB
• Application Type: MFC and Console
• SCM: Subversion

My company's Profilers for C, C++ and Java are designed to operate in a variety of execution environments, including embedded environments. They should run fine in a virtual machine, although you may have to configure them for what amounts to embedded environment execution. That isn't hard.
