IMHO, the least perturbing and most accurate profiler is the one  
built into JDK 1.5. run java with
-server -agentlib:hprof=cpu=samples,depth=10' flags for a long enough  
to collect enough samples to be statistically meaningful, then study  
the trace log and correlate its hotspot trailer with its call stack  
headers. For a background article on hprof see http://java.sun.com/
