To my knowledge, GDB does not have such a feature.
But for sure, there are various tools that can do that.
E.g. see valgrind  https://valgrind.org/docs/manual/manual.html 
and in particular the sections about callgrind and cachegrind (and possibly
the lackey tool).
Note that kcachegrind is a nice visualisation tool for callgrind output.

On linux, the "perf" command might also do what you want (significantly faster than
valgrind, which have a high performance impact).
