Tattle Tale INIT written by Bob Hablutzel writes a log file that records all
of the INITs executed during your Mac's boot sequence.  For each INIT, Tattle
Tale records the filename, the INIT name, the amount of above-BufPtr memory
acquired by the init, the amount of time used by the INIT, and a flag 
indicating whether the INIT has locked itself into the system heap.

Tattle Tale is shareware;  a contribution of $5 is suggested.

Hope this helps,
