I'd start with profiler.el, to profile the Lisp portions of the
function.  It's probably best to load the .el file first and profile
that, although this could skew the profile (because the byte-compiled
version behaves differently).

Another possibility is to add calls to float-time to time portions of
parse-time-string.
