Profiling shared libraries

[Daniel O'Connor]

Hi,
I have a shared library which is loaded into a Tcl interpreter and also loads submodules and I would like to profile it. Unfortunately it seems gprof does not grok shared libraries. I did some googling and it look like Linux has sprof for this but I can't see a port for FreeBSD.

Does anyone have any other ideas?
I have looked at DTrace but it's a bit fiddly to get working with my systems in the field so I'd prefer a pure userland solution if possible.

Thanks
