      OProfile is a system-wide profiler for Linux systems, capable of
      profiling all running code at low overhead.  It consists of a
      kernel driver and a daemon for collecting sample data, and
      several post-profiling tools for turning data into information.

      OProfile 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.
