There are cairo-trace (with --profile mode) and cairo-perf-trace for
2D performance test.
They are available from the git development tree and in the 1.9.2
snapshot but they are also planned for inclusion with Cairo 1.10.
Take a look at this blog post [1] and the official FAQ: [2]

You have sysprof [3] too.

Also, there already is a performance team in Gnome [3], you can see
there a list of other tools and some interesting articles.
