Call Tree View

The Call Tree view allows you to drill into specific call traces and analyze which traces have the greatest performance impact. You can set the starting node of the call tree view by using the Set Root shortcut menu item for a particular function or dll. By setting the root node, you can eliminate all other entries from the view. You can reset the root not using the Reset Root shortcut menu item. Call Tree view is similar to the call stack view found while debugging an application.

The Call Tree view can be customized to add or remove columns using a shortcut menu. It has the following columns:
