Is there a monitoring and profiling tool for .Net solutions like VisualVM for Java?

Question

I want to view the heap and the objects inside them. Is there a .net monitoring and profiling tool which I could use to view heaps and memory of a asp.net and C# application?

I would suggest taking a look at ANTS Memory Profiler and ANTS Performance Profiler from Red Gate:

ANTS Memory Profiler:

ANTS Performance Profiler:

For such affordable tools, they do a fantastic job of identifying bottlenecks and memory leaks.

For viewing the heap, you can use CLR Profiler or the SOS Debugging Extension for the Visual Studio Debugger.

Consider SlimTune, an open-source .Net profiler.
