The profiler will show you which functions are called and how long they take but it does not show you the order in which they are called. I think CodeInvestigator tracks the order of execution but I have never tried it: http://codeinvestigator.googlepages.com/main And of course a debugger (pdb or WinDbg for example) will let you follow along as functions execute, but I don't think they will show you times.
