See (info "(elisp) Profiling") on a fairly recent Emacs.

,---- C-h n => Lisp Changes in Emacs 24.3
| ** New sampling-based Elisp profiler.
| Try M-x profiler-start, do some work, and then call M-x profiler-report.
| When finished, use M-x profiler-stop.  The sampling rate can be based on
| CPU time or memory allocations.
