You can spy on a Process.

So you can easily build a little script that exercises the UI,
and then profile the UI until it's done.

This is something you'd do from a Workspace:


p _ Processor activeProcess.
done _ false.
e _ ActiveEvent.
[ MessageTally spyOnProcess: p forMilliseconds: 10000 toFileNamed: 'uiSpy.out'.
	done _ true. ] fork.
[ done ] whileFalse: [ 
	m _ World putUpWorldMenu: e.
	World doOneCycleNow.
	m delete.
	World doOneCycleNow.
 ].
