How to calculate the total rendering time of a wpf control?

Is there any profiler or tools available to calculate the "Rendering Time" of a particular control.

Rendering Time - 开发者_开发问答Time taken by the control to completely render visually on to the screen.

I don't know of any tools, but if its just a single control you could create a sub class, override the Render methods and use a StopWatch to find some timings...

Here is a nice tip on the same subject too to make the measurment from the ViewModel(using the Dispatcher):
