Record the time taken by each task when running the msbuild assembly

Question

We have a long msbuild script that I am trying to speed up. Is there a way to force msbuild to record the time spent on each target?

I looked at the xml logger, but it just displays the total time.

Should I make my own registrar, or is there something built?

Answer 1

It is actually quite easy, on the command line, just add this:

/consoleloggerparameters:PerformanceSummary

Answer 2

There is also a useful msbuild argument when you want to analyze which specific project in a decision has been taken for a long time:
