如果你想要一些快速和肮脏的东西，我建议使用秒表代替更大程度的精度。

Stopwatch sw = new Stopwatch();
sw.Start();
// Do Work
sw.Stop();

Console.WriteLine("Elapsed time: {0}", sw.Elapsed.TotalMilliseconds);

或者，如果你需要一些更复杂的东西，你可能应该考虑使用第三方分析器，如ANTS。

因为我不太关心精度，所以我最终比较了它们。我正在捕获网络上的大量数据包，我想在我收到每个数据包时放置时间。下面是测试500万次迭代的代码

    int iterations = 5000000;

    // Test using datetime.now
    {
        var date = DateTime.UtcNow.AddHours(DateTime.UtcNow.Second);

        var now = DateTime.UtcNow;

        for (int i = 0; i < iterations; i++)
        {
            if (date == DateTime.Now)
                Console.WriteLine("it is!");
        }
        Console.WriteLine($"Done executing {iterations} iterations using datetime.now. It took {(DateTime.UtcNow - now).TotalSeconds} seconds");
    }

    // Test using datetime.utcnow
    {
        var date = DateTime.UtcNow.AddHours(DateTime.UtcNow.Second);

        var now = DateTime.UtcNow;

        for (int i = 0; i < iterations; i++)
        {
            if (date == DateTime.UtcNow)
                Console.WriteLine("it is!");
        }
        Console.WriteLine($"Done executing {iterations} iterations using datetime.utcnow. It took {(DateTime.UtcNow - now).TotalSeconds} seconds");
    }

    // Test using stopwatch
    {
        Stopwatch sw = new Stopwatch();
        sw.Start();

        var now = DateTime.UtcNow;

        for (int i = 0; i < iterations; i++)
        {
            if (sw.ElapsedTicks == DateTime.Now.Ticks)
                Console.WriteLine("it is!");
        }
        Console.WriteLine($"Done executing {iterations} iterations using stopwatch. It took {(DateTime.UtcNow - now).TotalSeconds} seconds");
    }

输出结果为:

Done executing 5000000 iterations using datetime.now. It took 0.8685502 seconds 
Done executing 5000000 iterations using datetime.utcnow. It took 0.1074324 seconds 
Done executing 5000000 iterations using stopwatch. It took 0.9625021 seconds

总之，DateTime。如果您不太关心精度，UtcNow是最快的。这也支持了这个问题的答案https://stackoverflow.com/a/6986472/637142。

如果你想要一些快速和肮脏的东西，我建议使用秒表代替更大程度的精度。

Stopwatch sw = new Stopwatch();
sw.Start();
// Do Work
sw.Stop();

Console.WriteLine("Elapsed time: {0}", sw.Elapsed.TotalMilliseconds);

或者，如果你需要一些更复杂的东西，你可能应该考虑使用第三方分析器，如ANTS。

这不够专业:

Stopwatch sw = Stopwatch.StartNew();
PerformWork();
sw.Stop();

Console.WriteLine("Time taken: {0}ms", sw.Elapsed.TotalMilliseconds);

更可靠的说法是:

PerformWork();

int repeat = 1000;

Stopwatch sw = Stopwatch.StartNew();
for (int i = 0; i < repeat; i++)
{
   PerformWork();
}

sw.Stop();

Console.WriteLine("Time taken: {0}ms", sw.Elapsed.TotalMilliseconds / repeat);

在我的实际代码中，我将添加GC。收集调用以将托管堆更改为已知状态，并添加Sleep调用，以便在ETW配置文件中轻松分离不同的代码间隔。

将基准测试代码放入实用程序类/方法中是很有用的。StopWatch类不需要在错误时被丢弃或停止。最简单的为动作计时的代码是

public partial class With
{
    public static long Benchmark(Action action)
    {
        var stopwatch = Stopwatch.StartNew();
        action();
        stopwatch.Stop();
        return stopwatch.ElapsedMilliseconds;
    }
}

示例调用代码

public void Execute(Action action)
{
    var time = With.Benchmark(action);
    log.DebugFormat(“Did action in {0} ms.”, time);
}

下面是扩展方法的版本

public static class Extensions
{
    public static long Benchmark(this Action action)
    {
        return With.Benchmark(action);
    }
}

以及示例调用代码

public void Execute(Action action)
{
    var time = action.Benchmark()
    log.DebugFormat(“Did action in {0} ms.”, time);
}

我很少做这种性能检查(我倾向于认为“这个很慢，让它快一点”)，所以我几乎总是这样做。

谷歌确实显示了许多用于性能检查的资源/文章。

许多人提到使用pinvoke来获取性能信息。我研究的很多材料都只提到了使用perfmon..

看过秒表的对话..好了!我学到了一些东西:)
