Yes, callgrind is pretty cool, much more useful than old gprof-style profilers. Though as you note, the runtimes of any valgrind tool can be pretty extreme. My tweaked version of FunctionCheck is also useful when you can afford to compile an instrumented version of your code. Faster runtimes in exchange for extra compile time - frequently it's a worthwhile tradeoff.
Interesting, does the code still run and is useful? The latest comment about it was from 2005. To be able to use it, I need to set up a useful benchmark environment first though.
Sure, works fine. After I got call arc timings in, it pretty much had everything I wanted from it so it hasn't changed since. Works on Linux and Solaris.
