I can only say that I poked into this a bit myself a while back, but 
never figured out how. I didn't spend more than a couple hours, though. 
If you do find a way please let us know -- this would be handy for 
profiling drawing code too.

However, it shouldn't be that hard to fix your problem: Don't do 
ANYTHING with wx in other threads, except the few known thread-safe 
event posting calls (wx.CallAfter is the easiest).
