Well this will show you where time was spent inside libX11, so if you
only use LyX when you do it, it'll show the most time-expensive X11
calls LyX (or xforms etc.) makes.

Without symbols though you can only get a vague idea :

00000000 5000     0.493318    (no symbol) /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6.1

So whatever we are doing inside libX11 it only takes up 0.5% of the time
taken to load UserGuide.lyx (unoptimised build blah blah blah)
