I didn't know about the static method. I do a similar thing by deriving from the Stopwatch and logging the elapsed time in the Dispose. I was going to blog about that next, but I guess you beat me to it ;) Thanks for the comment. I didn’t know about the static method.

There is a static method on the Stopwatch class called StartNew() that returns an instance that has been started for you. ex. Stopwatch myStopwatch = Stopwatch.StartNew(); DoStuff() myStopwatch.Stop(); Console.WriteLine("Do Stuff took {0} ms", myStopwatch.ElapsedMilliseconds); I've got a class called a StopwatchWriter that simplifies everything if you're profiling multiple parts of the same method as well. http://www.vonsharp.net/StopwatchWriterClass.aspx You can actually make this even shorter.

ex.

DoStuff()

myStopwatch.Stop();
Console.WriteLine(”Do Stuff took {0} ms”, myStopwatch.ElapsedMilliseconds);
