What You Will Learn
You'll start by selecting the right profiler and learning how to navigate core report views. Through hands-on analysis of realistic C++ scenarios, you'll interpret timelines, call trees, and memory snapshots. Each section builds your ability to translate profiling evidence into practical optimization steps.
Key Features
- Analyze CPU, memory, file I/O, and concurrency to pinpoint real performance issues
- Interpret call stacks, timelines, and flame graphs for evidence-based optimization
- Apply profiling insights to resolve bottlenecks and improve application scalability
Target Audience
This course is ideal for C++ developers, performance engineers, and technical leads who want to diagnose and resolve runtime inefficiencies in Visual Studio. If you have basic C++ experience and want to optimize CPU, memory, file I/O, or multithreaded performance, you'll find actionable guidance tailored to your needs.
