Hello,

I am trying to profile an app I am writing using gprof. The app uses the
Gnome/GTK+ libs as well as the pthreads lib.

I have attached a section of the output - it doesn't seem correct. A
simple initialisation function is reported to take 50% of the time
whereas a complex function that is called over a 1000 times is reported
to take 0% of the time. Is this because of the threading?

Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Cyrus
