Performance profiling

Umbraco currently runs in debug mode. This means you can use the built-in performance profiler to assess the performance when rendering pages.

If you want to activate the profiler for a specific page rendering, simply add umbDebug=true to the querystring when requesting the page.

If you want the profiler to be activated by default for all page renderings, you can use the toggle below. It will set a cookie in your browser, which then activates the profiler automatically. In other words, the profiler will only be active by default in your browser - not everyone else's.

 

Activate the profiler by default

Friendly reminder

You should never let a production site run in debug mode. Debug mode is turned off by setting debug="false" on the <compilation /> element in web.config.

Umbraco currently does not run in debug mode, so you can't use the built-in profiler. This is how it should be for a production site.

Debug mode is turned on by setting debug="true" on the <compilation /> element in web.config.
