I can't find Shark on OS X Lion. The most recent Xcode is correctly installed, but I can only see Instruments. Has Shark been made obsolete by Instruments ?

Correct.

Shark was replaced with Instruments. There is a set of tools from Apple called CHUD that does still include Shark.

It's available here. It does require you to have a Developer Account to download. However there has been limited success in getting it to work on Lion.

It's safe to assume that Shark has bitten the dust.

Well, it's fine. Instruments is clearly a good replacement, it works well and it's less confusing. I used Shark just because I got used to it, but I won't miss it. – Stefano Borini Nov 10 '11 at 14:08
