On a related note, I got some odd results with the profiler once or twice until
I realized that my screen saver was interrupting the profiler, and was throwing
the profile WAY off.  While the my screen saver is running, the profiler is suspended,
so when you exit the screen saver, all the time spent in it gets assigned to 
whatever area the profiler was looking at whenever the screen saver went active.
Routines that previously had 13-15% suddenly went up to 30%, then 90% the next time
around... 

Beware TSRs in all their myriad forms.
