Memory & performance profiler for Silverlight 2.0?

Does anyone know of a memory & performance profiler for Silverlight 2.0 applications?  I.e. similar to Red-Gate's ANTS profiler?

Ok, thanks very much.  I'll try converting it to a WPF.

Here's your mchlSync!

FYI - I was able to convert my Silverlight 2.0 app to WPF to enable profiling.  I posted a list of issues I encountered while doing so at: http://blog.kkrankk.com/default.html.

Thanks!!

 hi we can  use Performance Analyzer tools are new to the Windows Server 2008 SDK for Silverlight profile Check

The Performance Analyzer tools are new to the Windows Server 2008 SDK and are designed to measure and analyze Windows system and application performance. The Performance Analyzer tools consist of two primary programs, Xperf.exe and Performance Analyzer (Xperfview.exe). Xperf is a command-line tool that is used to control tracing and to process trace data. Performance Analyzer is a graphical trace data visualization tool. All the functions of the tools in the Windows Performance Toolkit (WPT) are available via the command-line tool, Xperf. After you install the tools, you can view your first trace.

To install Xperf and Xperfview

1. Install the tools from the appropriate MSI file for the target system’s processor architecture x86 (32-bit), x64, or Itanium-based. You can use the default installation path or select another path, for example, C:\xperf. The installer will add the Performance Analyzer installation path to your system’s PATH environment variable.
2. Open an elevated command prompt window.
   1. Click Start, click All Programs, and then click Accessories.
   2. Right-click Command Prompt, and click Run as administrator.

    

3. In the command prompt window, type the following command to turn on the Windows kernel event provider and send data to the default file \kernel.etl:

   xperf -on DiagEasy
   

    

4. Compile a program or browse some Web pages.
5. Use the following command to stop the kernel logger, and then merge and save the trace data to a Trace.etl:

   xperf –d trace.etl  
   

6. View the trace file in Performance Analyzer by using this command:

xperf trace.etl  

A graph of the data in the trace file appears. It should look similar to the following figure.

This view captures processor and disk utilization, process life times, and interrupt and deferred procedure call CPU usage.

To select an image, click the Selector tab on the right-hand side of the window.

You can select regions in the graph, zoom to them, and view summary table information on the regions. You click and drag to select a region, and then right-click to display the menu for the region.

another option, is to use silverlight spy, the analysis is not as rich, but might be enough for you,
