## What it is
MiniProfiler is a simple but effective mini-profiler for ASP.NET MVC, ASP.NET, and Ruby, providing ADO.NET query profiling and lightweight step instrumentation with an in-page UI. This original repository by SamSaffron has moved to the MiniProfiler GitHub organization and is no longer maintained here.

## Use cases
- profile SQL queries in ASP.NET applications
- find slow database calls in Entity Framework or LINQ-to-SQL
- add custom timing instrumentation to code
- debug page performance in web apps
- profile ADO.NET calls against SQL Server or Oracle
- share timing results with teammates

## When to choose
- you need lightweight, low-overhead profiling for .NET or Ruby web apps
- you want to see which SQL queries run on a page and how long they take
- you want a production-friendly profiler designed by the Stack Overflow team

## When to avoid
- you want active development or support - use the successor repos under the MiniProfiler organization
- you need full APM-style distributed tracing or continuous monitoring
- you are profiling non-web applications without instrumentation points

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: abandoned
- function: monitoring, tracing, benchmarking
- domain: performance, web-development, developer-tools, databases
- platform: dotnet, cross-platform
- tags: profiler, ado-net, asp-net, ruby, sql-profiling, performance-tuning, moved-repository
