The eazel-profiler in eazel-tools in CVS is probably a bit better than
gprof for Nautilus (gprof didn't like shared libs last time I used it,
so you had to figure out how to statically link the works).

Both of them are pretty limited though, since they use time sampling
instead of counting CPU cycles, and can't profile all the processes
involved simultaneously.
