GCC can also do profiling.

Build with: CFLAGS="-g -pg", LDFLAGS="-g -pg".

Then run with: gprof -Isrc exim-4.88 gmon.out > gprof-exim.txt
(where "src" is a list of search directories in which to find source
files; exim-4.88 is the executable; gmon.out is a product of the build
-- dynamic call graph and profile)

Hope this helps.
