The .Net Collect tab allows you to specify which .Net data is monitored and which is ignored when a .Net or .Net mixed mode program is run.

 

 

 

 

 

Data Collection

 

There are three categories of data that can be monitored. By default they are all enabled.

 

•.Net memory data monitor all .Net memory allocations

 

•.Net handle data monitor all .Net handle allocations

 

•COM Classic VTable data monitor COM object creation

 

 

A lot of objects are created and destroyed in a .Net application. Some of these objects may not be of interest. We've put them into four categories so that you can easily exclude them if you want to.

 

•No source code for allocation location If there is no source code for the allocation location, ignore these allocations. Disabled by default.

 

•Allocated in the .Net Framework If the object is allocated in the .Net Framework, ignore the allocation. Disabled by default.

 

•Declared in the .Net Framework If the object is declared in the .Net Framework, ignore the allocation. Disabled by default.

 

•Native allocations in .Net runtime DLLs Ignore native allocations in the .Net runtime DLLs. Enabled by default.

 

 

Object Churn

 

Object churn is a measure of how frequently objects of a specific type are garbage collected after being created. Objects with low churn rates may be leaked objects.

 

When calculating object churn the results can be influenced by how many of the recent generations of objects you inspect.

 

•Churn generations How many recent generations to consider when calculating churn.
