This simple program checks if the user time reported by time corresponds to the
cumulative seconds reported by gprof

for multi core CPUs currently this seems to be way off;
for RH9 (on a single core CPU) a good correspondence was found

[Bug gprof/4848] New: gprof gives wrong time summary on multi core / SMP environment

2007-07-26 Thread markus dot maresch at bigfoot dot com
GPROF: GNU gprof 2.17.50.0.6-5.fc6
UNAME-A: Linux  2.6.20-1.2962.fc6 #1 SMP Tue Jun 19 18:24:12 EDT 2007
i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

On single core CPU's and older kernels the cumulative seconds column converged
well towards the user time for the executed command. On multi core and SMP
machines this seems way off - not half (for dual core) - just something.

Reproduce: I have a simple C program to demonstrate this.
