How to write a performance test for a .Net application?

Question

How to write a performance test for a .Net application? Is nUnit or any other testing framework needed for this?

Edit : I need to measure the performance of the WCF service.

I came across NTime, which looks cool for writing performance tests.

        long[] primeArray = primes.generatePrimes(10000000);
        timer.Stop();
        Assert.AreEqual(664579, primeArray.Length, "Should be 664,579 primes below ten million");
        int elapsedSeconds = timer.Elapsed.Seconds;
        Console.Write("Time in seconds to generate primes up to ten million: " + elapsedSeconds);
        bool ExecutionTimeLessThanFiveSeconds = (elapsedSeconds < 5);
        Assert.IsTrue(ExecutionTimeLessThanFiveSeconds, "Should take less than five seconds");
