I am trying to explore the gcc 's profiling support.It
is has great support for instrumenting application
with profiling code.

Gcc supports two kinds of profiling. The gprof profiling uses timers, and requires profil(). The gcov profiling uses counters, and does not require profil(). See the -fprofile-arcs and -ftest-coverage options. See also the gcov documentation. -- Jim Wilson, GNU Tools Support, http://www.SpecifixInc.com
