Fair enough.
At the moment I'm using the integrated hprof profiler and an old version of
hpjmeter to parse the generated text file after hand fixing it by hand.

Problems with this solution: overestimation of the time needed to create
new objects, full run is profiled, you see the results only after the fact.
Also, HPJMeter 2.0 is not compatible with hprof output anymore and seems to
be much more heaviweight (I'm using 1.6 to parse the hprof output).

On the contrary, yourkit is fast, integrated with Eclipse (but can also run
standalone), can profile interactively (start/stop profile so that you can
profile just a part of the whole run).

Free alternatives I've considered:
* TPTP: this one is a joke, too slow to be used, slows down the profiled
   application by a factor of 100
* Netbeans profiler: integrated in Netbeans, won't use it (yourkit works
   standalone too).

Yourkit seems to me the path of least resistance. If you have experience
with other free profilers speak up.

Cheers
Andrea
