I am trying to optimize some code so I thought I'd use gprof.
the problem is that when I run the code the table output by 
gprof contains an entry _mono_putc. I don't use this function but it is 
taking up almost 70% of the execution time. I have a dual display 
(MDA+VGA) and output on the mono screen is loads of meaning less numbers 
(I assume function addresses) Is there a way to stop this behaviour??

I think it could be taking up so much time because I use a origonal IBM 
XT MGA adapter which I fear may be very slow to write to???

Help would be much appreciated and also any advice on profiling??

Cheers 

Garth
