You shouldn't invoke profiler-stop, it affects the profile.  Just
profiler-start, do what you want to profile, then profiler-report.

From what you posted, it looks like GC is a major player, but it's
hard to be sure (and 88 sec is a lot of time for a GC).  Please show
the profile collected as suggested above.

Thanks.
