I use firebug and dot tracer from jet brains and we use perfmon to have a look on how our web servers are doing.

I use IISPools tool from http://www.hoststools.com it helps to find the CPU usage etc. It is better to place the site into a separate pool before the analysis.

I would recommend this free online tool: http://Site-Perf.com/

It measure loading speed of page and it's requisites (images/js/css) like browsers do and shows nice detailed chart.

Also very useful thing is that this tool is able to verify network quality of your server (packet loss level and ping delays).

What I am using to do web pages tests is called "HttpWatch" unfortunatly it can be used only with IE. It has planty of information that gives you back for the page loading process and the web server.

My site has over 20k concurrent users at any one time. I pretty much do the following:

Religiously check performance of all sprocs and partitioned views and of sql server as the db grows.

Everything is gzipped, without this, I would go out of business.

My asp.net code is fairly simple and cannot be really optimized further - but I have taken a great deal of time to reduce http calls by using css spriting for all structurural images and menus.

I use a CDN for images as this enables browsers to make parallel usage of http ports, faster load time, and expires headers are set.

I could go on - personally I feel that the bottlenecks are hardly ever to so with asp.net, start at sql server (and keep at it) and focus on reducing packet sizes and network calls. Any page that tends to use a lot of resources ends up getting cached as output or where poss the data is cached.

Firebug/YSlow for client side.

If it's database-driven and the calls are slow we use SQL profiler.

I haven't found anything that's easy to use that help with resource usage or load testing.

I use Firebug to watch the scripts and styles and the rendered size of that page .

Also I watch the ViewState and the controls size by enabling page trace .
