About the output produced when using -gt:
I understand the lower part of the trace.log file (Timer is .... times in 
microsecs... etc). But what does the upper part mean? There're just a bunch of 
numbers without any title or anything.

Besides, is there any free profiler on Windows that works with DMD? I tried 
AMD's CodeAnalyst, but it doesn't understand the generated code, so it outputs 
assembler code.

Oh, yes, you're absolutely right. I had made a mistake regarding the project 
options. Thanks and sorry for that.

The upper part shows you who called who, so you can tell why function xxyy

While we're on the subject: what are your (anybody's) thoughts on VS2005's 
PGO?

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/dv_vstechart/html/profileguidedoptimization.asp

"The idea behind PGO is simple: Generate profiles from running the 
executable/dll on real-world inputs, which are then used to assist the 
compiler in generating optimized code for the particular executable. "
