Add a -pg argument to the compiler flags for the application, run it, and then use the gprof program to eamine the resulting gmon.out file. Note that performance tuning is a black art, and that the numbers you see are going to be lying to you in subtle ways, especially if you have the optimizer turned on. And you probably aren't going to be able to use it to profile a real time application (like FlightGear) very well at all. Andy --- Using Tomcat but need to do more?

Depending on the application it might work to compile it with profiling enabled using the gcc flag -pg: -pg Generate extra code to write profile information suitable for the analysis program gprof. You must use this option when compiling the source files you want data about, and you must also use it when linking. IIRC there might be problems if the program is multithreaded or uses complex shared libraries(?). When it works the information is often very useful. /Anders -- Luck is my middle name, said Rincewind, indistinctly.
