It's many years since I tried profiling stuff with 'make profile=yes' and
using gprof
As far as I can recall. mostly when I did it, I was generally optimising the
base library, and statically linking it with a tiny tool written to exercise
the bit of code I was interested in.
Now I need to profile some real world programs which dynamically link in the
base library and several other Objective-C libraries, and I'm having
trouble. In spite of building all the ObjC libraries with 'make debug=yes
profile=yes', when I run gprof on the gmon.out produced by the program, I
get nothing reported for the base library or any of my own objc libraries
(which do most of the work).
Am I doing something stupid?
Does anyone have experience with profiling share objc libraries (I'm working
on debian unstable intel).
