Profiling and inlining

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Does anyone know of a profiler which will allow me to analyze the
performance of jit'ed assemblies taking into account optimization like
inlining?

I've tried the profiler built in to Visual Studio 2005 and I've tried
IBM Rational's Quantify. Both of them seem to somehow cause the JIT not
to do inlining (it probably doesn't do any optimizations).

Consequently when I look over the results and try to identify
bottlenecks (in a rather complex and long-running algorithm), the
results from both tools are completely skewed by the fact that a few
small accessor functions, which are called very frequently are not
inlined.

Right now I'm left with temporarily manually inlining these functions
just for the sake of running the profiler, and there might be many more
missing optimizations that still skews the picture after that.

I'm interested in any advice that might help me: other (better)
profilers, workarounds, etc.

Thanks.
