Here is a screenshot of it in action: http://www.automatedqa.com/products/aqtime/images/aqtime5/line_profiling_results.gif To go into line mode, you choose Full Check By Lines in the Areas view: http://www.automatedqa.com/products/aqtime/images/aqtime5/setup_panel.gif I've found it is most useful if you narrow down the classes/modules it instruments - otherwise, you are correct that it can slow down the application quite a bit. You can also turn on the profiling when it enters a method and turn it off when it exits for better speed, though I found the "triggers/actions" GUI for doing that fairly unintuitive at first.
