Profiling COM libraries used from a .NET Application

Question

I am looking for a performance profiler that is able to profile a C++ library that is being called from a .NET Application.

I tried Purify+ without success (I don't get the calls the COM library) and a few others.

Answer 1

Have you tried the IBM or AMD tools? They're really low level (being made from processor makers!) and so maybe they can profile your component.

xperf might be good.

I know that at a previous job my group used vtune successfully.
