Lattice 5.x includes a profiler LPROF/LSTAT with the package to do exactly
what you want.  It will report down to the line number where your code is
spending the most time.  The 5.04 update includes an option on LPROF to
control the rate of sampling.  Note that the profiler also works to the
source line with Asm stuff that has line number information (supported by
CAPE and the Lattice Assembler).
