The profiler is the most hardware/operating system dependent part of Eclipse because it uses a timer sampling technique that interrupts the running program every 10ms and tries to find out which predicate is currently being executed. This is currently only implemented on SunOS4/5 and Linux. The SunOS results are usually reliable, but we know that on Linux we always seem to get a certain amount of faulty samples. > This goes away after exiting and restarting eclipse. That's an interesting observation - I hadn't noticed that. There also seems to be a problem with time being reported in the wrong built-ins since version 5.0. We'll try to find some time to address these problems in version 5.2 which is scheduled for release in May!
