Its been ages so I may have faulty memory.

The compiler can generate code to "profile" a piece of code.
As I recall the profile included info on number of times a
function is entered, total time spent in the function, and
maybe min/max times in the function.

You only need to add the profile option for the code you are
interested in.  And perhaps at the link stage also.
