When we profile a program under SunOS 3.5, well over 90% of the runtime is
recorded in the profiling routines themselves.  We have notified Sun, and
they say that the problem is fixed in SunOS 4.0.  However, we can't afford
the downtime to upgrade soon, and we need this problem fixed soon.  Does
anybody out there know of a patch that will fix the problem?

Please mail responses, as we don't get this newsgroup.
