What is the equivalent to System.nanoTime() in .NET?

Question

Answer 1

DateTime.Now.Ticks

I was trying to find the answer to this to run some performance testing.

DateTime startTime = DateTime.Now;
generatorEntity.PopulateValueList();
TimeSpan elapsedTime = DateTime.Now - startTime;
Console.WriteLine("Completed! time(ticks) - " + elapsedTime.Ticks);
