I would do this myself, but have no time right now. Here is the recipe: Compile every file for that you want profile information with the -pg switch. This switch is also needed for linking, so the quick solution would be something like LDFLAGS="-pg" CXXFLAGS="-pg" configure Running LyX then generates a file gmon.out in the current directory. You can generate human readable profiling information by running gprof <path to lyx executable> >profile.txt in that directory. Georg
