+
+      <para><application>OProfile</application> is a system-wide profiler for

+      <application>OProfile</application> is released under the GNU GPL. It

+      several post-profiling tools for turning data into information.
+      <application>OProfile</application> leverages the hardware performance
+      counters of the CPU to enable profiling of a wide variety of interesting
+      statistics, which can also be used for basic time-spent profiling. All
+      code is profiled: hardware and software interrupt handlers, kernel
+      modules, the kernel, shared libraries, and applications.
+      <application>OProfile</application> is currently in alpha status; however
+      it has proven stable over a large number of differing configurations. It
+      is being used on machines ranging from laptops to 16-way NUMA-Q
