[comp.lang.lisp] profiling tools?

Does anyone have a timer for lisp, or other general profiling tools?  I've 
recently "inherited" a large body of unfamiliar and inefficient code, and 
would like to get a quick feel for where the time is being spent.  I can 
hack up something quick and minimal, but if there are good tools out there 
for this sort of thing, I'd like to know.

I'm working in a variant of franz (yeah, I know; it wasn't my decision), so
I fully expect to have to modify anything I get from the net.  With luck it
won't be *that* complicated.... (And I'll probably live to regret those
words. :-) )

I'll summarize if I get any responses.  Thanks!
