Very Sleepy is a free open-source sampling CPU profiler for Windows with a wxWidgets-based GUI. It can attach to any running native Windows application without recompilation and displays results as a full call graph, supporting both Visual Studio (PDB) and MinGW (DWARF) symbols.

Use cases

  • profile a slow Windows application to find CPU hotspots
  • sample-profile a running process without recompiling it
  • profile MinGW-compiled programs with DWARF symbols
  • view profiling results as a call graph and export to CSV
  • profile an existing process by its PID from the command line
  • resolve symbols via the Microsoft Symbol Server

When to choose

  • you need a simple, zero-setup CPU profiler for native Windows apps
  • you profile C/C++ code built with Visual Studio or MinGW
  • you want to attach to an already-running process without instrumentation
  • you prefer a lightweight GUI profiler over heavy suites like VTune

When to avoid

  • you need profiling on Linux or macOS - this is Windows-only
  • you need GPU, memory, or I/O profiling rather than CPU sampling
  • you need continuous integration profiling or advanced trace analysis
  • you need a cross-platform profiler for managed languages like .NET or Java
