I was wondering if anybody had success with using the space profiler? Here
is the analysis results I am given:

TRF> (prof:start-profiler :type :space)
:sampling
TRF> red goto-c problem7-code
....[here is the run to be analyzed]....
TRF> (prof:stop-profiler)
:saved
TRF> (prof:show-flat-profile)
Sample represents 815775.9 Kbytes of space allocated (out of a total of 87785680.0)

Mem.s below 1.0% will be suppressed.

  %     %     self  total            self   total  Function
 Mem.  Cum.  Kbyte  Kbyte    calls by/call by/call   name
 99.8  99.8 814128 814128                          "do_c_funcall"

TRF> 

Not very helpful, right? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Thomas
