If you have debugging symbols installed for your X server (they tend to be a separate package) the GNOME 'sysprof' tool will do the magic for you, and is pretty much idiot-proof (it took me a few seconds to figure out how to use it, and I never did work out how to use oprofile). (It includes a kernel module you have to compile and install.) It's a system-wide profiler, but if X really is eating machine time, it should be near the top of the list. (It shows what functions inside each process eat time, on a process-by-process basis, most expensive processes first.) _______________________________________________ xorg mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg
