At doing what?  Is there a minimal test case you could post?

That’s the bytecode interpreter, so it’s expected.  :-)

That’s more surprising.  That could happen, e.g., if your code calls a
lot of C functions that take string arguments, which are converted from
Scheme using scm_to_locale_string, which in turn calls malloc.

Besides, which profiling tool did you use?

Thanks,
