The easiest way to profile Java applications, besides printing out the difference between two System.currentTimeMillis() calls, is to use the profiler built in to Sun's JVM.

"java -agentlib:hprof=cpu=samples Abc" runs the Abc program. By default, a java.hprof.txt file is created.

And "java -Xrunhprof:help" shows help.
