+Sysprof Linux Profiler v. 1.0.9
+
+
+* What is it?
+--------------------------
+
+Sysprof is a sampling system-wide CPU profiler for Linux.
+
+Sysprof uses a Linux kernel module to profile the entire system, not
+just an individual application. Sysprof handles threads and shared
+libraries, and applications do not have to be recompiled or
+instrumented. In fact they don't even have to be restarted.
+
+
+* Features:
+----------------------
+
+ - Profiles all running processes, not just a single application
+
+ - Call graph support showing time spent in each branch of the call tree
+
+ - Has a simple graphical interface
+
+ - Profiles can be loaded and saved
+
+ - Easy to use: Just insert the kernel module and start sysprof
+
+ - Supports Fedora debuginfo packages
+
+
+* Sysprof 1.0.9
+--------------------------
+
+ - Compiles with Linux 2.6.23
