One technique you may find useful for this kind of thing is to look at the proportion of CPU time spend in the kernel (sys cpu time) and in user code (user cpu time).
I think you can do this by running a multi-part load meter like the one on gkrellm (or top in a terminal). You can also try running the application from the shell with "time" in front, but that only gets reported when the app quits.
Am I thinking of the right thing here?
