Is it possible to automate performance monitoring?

Hi folks,

I was thinking of incorporating some benchmarks into my unit test executives, so that I would be able to get some baselines for performance. I wouldn't treat them as gospel, but if run on the same dedicated machine perhaps they shouldn't vary too much, and might indicate something about e.g. improvements under the hood in the latest version of labview, code smells etc.

I want to find out if there is a way of calling programmatically

- Desktop execution traces

- Memory and performance allocations

- Buffer allocations

I'm sure there's a chicken and egg problem with using a using such a function inside compiled code that is already running, but it doesn't seem impossible if the process can be started asynchronously or perhaps using windows' native performance tools, such that the compiler doesn't have a chance to preload before creating a measurement baseline.
