    Resolved [RESOLVED] .NET timing

    This is neither C# or VB.NET specific i am just looking for a nice class to time the execution of specific blocks of code. At the moment i am just using the System.Diagnostics.Stopwatch class and C# seems to be performing better by quite a bit

    Anyway is there maybe a better way? From what i have heard Stopwatch is perfectly fine but just wondering, any ideas are welcome

    Never mind apparently the Stopwatch is a hardware timer and it is as good as you can possibly get

    StopWatch was added in .Net 2.0 so you didn't have to use ugly Win32 api (QueryPerformanceTimer to be more specific) so it's good
