Hello all,

I just wanted to share a small perl script that generates a dot file 
from the result of the R profiler. The dot file can than be used to 
create a graphical display of the profiling.  You can save this file in 
the bin directory of your R installation and then create a graph, for 
example an SVG by piping the output of the script to dot:

$ R CMD Rprof2dot Rprof.out | dot -Tsvg > test3.svg

Some example graphics are presented in the R wiki here: 
http://wiki.r-project.org/rwiki/doku.php?id=tips:misc:profiling

Cheers,

Romain
