What tools can I use to profile a .Net application in Visual Studio 2010 Professional Edition

Visual Studio 2010 Professional Edition doesn't contain the profiler. http://www.microsoft.com/visualstudio/en-us/products/2010-editions/product-comparison

What free alternatives are there?

AQtime: http://smartbear.com/products/free-tools/aqtime-standard/

Another good alternative is the built in profiler that comes with SharpDevelop: http://www.icsharpcode.net/opensource/sd/

It looks like MS has provided a stand alone tool that you can use

EQATEC Profile is the only free one that I'm aware of, but I've never used it. http://www.eqatec.com/tools/profiler/

I've personally had great success with JetBrains' dotTrace profiler in the past. http://www.jetbrains.com/profiler/

RedGate also has their ANTS Performance Profiler product. http://www.red-gate.com/products/dotnet-development/ants-performance-profiler/

Neither of these are free, although usually the trial period is enough to diagnose a few problems to work on for awhile. :)
