Many troubleshooting steps in that blog also covers DebugDiag .DebugDiag is an amazing tool which can help you collect dumps automatically for crash,high memory,IIS slow response etc.
Perfview is built on the (Windows Event tracing) ETW infrastructure windows have .You can think of it as Lttng or perf_events linux equivalent but built into everything windows have. I think process monitor is also built on ETW. After debugging ( which is not required for lot of scenarios) the most powerfull thing in troubleshooting any issues in Windows is ETW traces IMHO.So understanding and analyzing ETW will help you troubleshoot a lot of issues.
