Any particular OS/compiler?

On Gnu and SunOS, you can switch on the profiler and run gprof after that for the pretty pictures. Rational also do a tool called quantify which does similar things.

You could try out Lexient's Surveyor tool if you're in a Windows Visual Studio environment. That would show you exacly what you're looking for...

There is a toolkit available at www.appmind.com, free to use for developers. Using a C API you can add trace messages to your program and view the messages in a Java GUI. It also provides log file handling and stuff, and using trace levels you can leave the traces in release-compiled code and dynamically controll what should really be output. Excellent when you can't reproduce a problem a customer has in an controlled environment.
