What's New in JustTrace for Q1 2012

Largest Memory Retainers

We’ve added one new handy Memory Profiler view called “Largest Memory Retainers” which is useful for exploring and reducing memory usage. By examining the “Largest Memory Retainers” view, one can easily identify which objects keep other objects alive and which objects retain the most memory (it helps find memory leaks caused by individual objects).

The dominator roots are listed in the view. The children of each node are the objects for the immediate dominator.

Live Data for Silverlight Applications

JustTrace’s “Live Data” view was recently overhauled. We’ve introduced a completely new look and the information contained. The live data view now shows real-time data for the profiled process(es). It contains two charts with information about CPU and memory usage history along with a list with current values of the selected .NET performance counters. With this release we have also added live data for profiled Silverlight applications

Fix for JustTrace/JustMock Compatibility Issue

Last but not least, is a fix for the compatibility issue between JustTrace and JustMock (our own mocking framework). This is the first step towards better integration of the two tools. Now if you install the latest version of JM, you will be able to use JM and JT Visual Studio add-in without the need to disable one of them. This is only a first step, since for now you will be able to use only one of them at a time. Meaning, when one is in use, the other will be disabled.
