Rprof is great! I didn't know such functionality existed.
But I am a very destructive user; I think I found a way
to break Rprof: if I do
f <- my.slow.function
then call
f(...)
Rprof will report that f (and not my.slow.function) was
called <evil grin>.
I noticed that because I "tested" Rprof with one of my
programs that do test cases; these test cases run with
an array of functions, by calling each function from
the array - precisely what can't be traced by Rprof :-)
