For Windows as well as linux? about applicationinsights-profiler-aspnetcore HOT 4 CLOSED

It's still experimental, but ready for testing and we'd welcome feedback.

BTW, this was part of the plan all along. The traditional profiler is based on ETW, which is a Windows-only technology. So we needed to develop a new solution for profiling .NET Core applications on Linux. The Bing team created an in-proc profiler called BPerf for CoreCLR (https://github.com/Microsoft/BPerf) and we took that idea and turned it into a supported feature for .NET Core 2.0. Having had a couple of versions to work out the early kinks, we feel it's ready to try it out for Windows too.

Thanks for the quick response and very cool I look forward to playing with it.

Is this also something recommended over the runtime extension? i.e in the past we've needed the SDK and runtime extension to get the best of both worlds... not necessarily in regards to the profiler, so perhaps this is secondary question is better of suited in the other app insights github repos.

For now, don't install the runtime extension. It's unaware of this method of profiling and will probably mess things up pretty horribly. Stick with the SDK.

No worries, thanks for the great advice.
