java -prof causes the wrong time to be collected for recursive methods.
Example:
calls: x -> a -> a -> a -> a
each time a is called it uses t milliseconds The time -prof records for
the call from a to a is (1 + 2 + 3)t, not 3t. The time -prof records for
the call from x to a is (1 + 2 + 3 + 4)t, not 4t.
