I would like to find out where an application 'hangs' for
some overly long time (possibly a network/socket call or something)

Recently I grabbed out 'trace-1.6' for a HP-UX machine which is
supposed to be based on the SUN kernel trace interface.

The problem using the kernel option KTRACE would be
that I cannot watch the application as it performs, instead I can
only trace 'a posteriori'.

Would the be a way to support this utility and the kernel trace interface
under FreeBSD?

Or are there any other ways (other than profiling, which is also an a
posteriori method) to 'watch' what an app does?
