What you want is gprof. It's a standard component of most free Unices these
days.
What you do is compile your programs (if using gcc) with the -pg option. Then,
when you run them, the program will generate a huge log file. gprof analyses
this log file and gives you more profiling information than you ever wanted to
know.
I'm sending direct to you an example log I got from running pforth with
profiling enabled. It should let you see what sort of things it tells you.
