WCF Webservice slow, find bottleneck

I'm briefly familiar with SvctraceViewer, but I'm not sure that is the right tool for this. Problem is, I'm trying to work with a rather large WCF app, not designed nor developed by me. Also, it is poorly documented.

Some of the views are running slowly, but - I have no idea why.

Is there any program that I can use to find out where the bottleneck is?
How many milliseconds a task takes before completing and so on?

+1 to John Saunders - a profiler is the way to go to diagnose your problem. Ants Profiler is also excellent. I think you can get a 15 day free trial - might be long enough to identify your problem

Just use any profiler. There's nothing magical about WCF services which requires a special tool.

I have used both the built-in profiler in Visual Studio and also the dotTrace product from Jetbrains to accomplish this.
