Is there something built into Flash 8 that can help me detect which parts of my code get run the most?

I’m making a game that starts to slow down after a certain number of moving objects are on the screen. At first it would slow down with only a few objects, but i’ve been working real hard on making it more efficient and now i have it so that it doesn’t slow down until about 18 objects, but i still want to improve upon this.

Anyway, it would be SO much easier if i could say, play my game for a while and then when i was done Flash would tell me how many times each line of my code was called during that session. Then i could look at the lines that are getting called the most and see if i can make it so they are called less.

Any ideas?
