good resources/books on profiling software

Question

Can anyone suggest some good resources and/or books on profiling, importance of profiling, profiling techniques?

thanks

The keyword is "good". There's plenty of not-so-good stuff. here's my take on it: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1777556/alternatives-to-gprof/1779343#1779343 — Mike Dunlavey, Oct 31 '10 at 13:57

There is a book on how to use Valgrind, a GNU/Linux tool set that has a few profilers. If you wanted to learn about profiling, playing with Valgrind is a great "interactive" way to do it.
