A four-second test isn't long enough to gather any statistically
meaningful profile info.  On most machines, gprof samples 100 times per
second, so realistically you need a minute or two of runtime to have
trustworthy numbers.

Please replicate the rows in the table by a factor of ten or twenty or
so and try again.
