I've used Cachegrind and OProfile. OProfile is generally better because it is so much faster, and you know the numbers are real times, rather than instruction counts which don't necessarily map exactly to real times. But Cachegrind does give more detailed information. Nick ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
