I’ve just started working on my first project with Godot and run into such issue. Looks like there is no info in Godot profiler when you are using Mono. Maybe I’m doing something wrong or it’s a common knowledge I’m not aware of.

So my question is: how do you profile Mono projects?

There is mono_log profiler on board

Adds mono log profiler support. When the global project setting is enabled, the …mono log profiler is enabled and the output is written to output.mlpd. These can be analyzed using the mono ```mprof-report``` tool: ```mprof-report output.mlpd``` This was the fastest path to success, but I think a better long term solution would be to create a custom mono profiler implementation to replace the default log profiler. This could register with the mono profiler callbacks and feed information to the existing Godot profiling UI.

and there is a way to use external profiler

This is apparently not working on windows, how can you profile on this OS please ?
