For anyone wondering what is PerfView like I was, let me spare you a trip to google:

> PerfView is a performance-analysis tool that helps isolate CPU and memory-related performance issues.

> PerfView is a performance analysis tool focusing on ETW information (ETL files) as well as CLR memory information (heap dumps). It can collect and view ETL in a variety of ways. Powerful grouping operators allow you to understand performance profiles in ways other tools can't.
