I suggest that you should upgrade your Azure SDK to the latest 2.9 version.
To debug your worker role locally, you can just press F5 to start VS in Debug mode, and if you have VS 2015, it already has Memory and CPU profiler that you can use. There are many other profilers like DebugDiag, and Ants Profiler
If you want to debug an Azure Worker or Web Role, then expand the list of resources in VS under your Azure Subscription and right click on the worker role and select Debug, but make sure the remote debugging is enabled in the worker role settings.

There is Azure SDK 2.9 for VS2013, maybe you have to install Update 3 https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/announcing-visual-studio-azure-tools-and-sdk-2-9/ – Haitham Shaddad Sep 28 '16 at 11:34
