Visual Studio (Performance tools) download and How to do.
RedGate Ants Profiler
Telerik JustTrace

The last 2 are good ones, and not free

Are any tools able identify XAML perf issues? – user1542794 May 10 '13 at 08:56
@user1542794 not sure what you mean. You can trace memory or CPU performance. – noobob May 10 '13 at 09:04
Would these tools be able to pinpoint problems with the xaml markup? That is where we suspect our bottlenecks are. – user1542794 May 10 '13 at 12:04

PerfView is free tool that is used by the CLR performance team. It is specifically designed for profiling the performance of .NET applications and can do both CPU and memory (managed heap) investigations. A plus is that it doesn't require running an install on a machine to collect performance data. There is an awesome series of videos by Vance Morrison on using the tool.

what app are you developing, WPF, Silverlight or win8? Basiclly the profile tool inside Visual Studio is enough to figure out the bottlenecks.
