The most likely cause is that your program spends 95% of its time
in libc, and you did not link with a profiling version of libc
(you'll need glibc-prof package installed).
To understand this better, compile/run the test below, examine
gprof output, then relink it with /usr/lib/libc_p.a and repeat.
Cheers,

void foo(int count)

int i;
char buf[10240];
for (i = 0; i < count; ++i)
memset(buf, 0, sizeof(buf));
}
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
int i, count = 1000000;
if (argc > 1) count = atoi(argv[1]);
foo(count);
return 0;
