profiling API?


I'd like to profile small(ish) portions of the execution of a program
rather than the whole thing as it has a few behaviour phase changes and I
want to profile one mode.

Is there any way to get multiple gmon.out files for a given execution?
Being able to get the output at arbitrary times (eg on receipt of a
signal) would be sufficient, but it would be even better if the program
could control its own profiling.



PS: I'm not subscribed to the binutils mailing list, so please include me
in any replies.
