Note that it is not enough in itself. You should add --disable-assertions --disable-stdlib-debug -enable-optimization=-O2 The big problem with gprof is that I never manage to get it to count the time spent in the Qt library. That makes its timings pretty useless in the case we are interesting in. It is supposedly possible to use oprofile to get a nice system-wide profile, and call-graph can be obtained with a really recent kernel (2.6.12?). This would be the best solution, I guess. JMarc
