Webservice wcf performance counters for queue

Question

Am trying to performance test a wcf webservice which should get a lot of traffic. Which performance counters are sensible to use and for which purpose..Naturally I am looking at CPU and RAM, but I would like to know when IIS is queing and when its having trouble...

Any advice on sensible performance counters gratefully received...

Cheers alex

Answer 1

MSDN has an entire section on WCF administration and diagnostics, and specifically, for performance counters in WCF.

There are also specific sections for performance counters hosted service calls, as well as for the endpoint and for operations.

I would suggest looking through those first, as there is a good amount of valuable information there.
