I seriously doubt it ever take 309us :-) If you subtract two datetimes you get a timedelta. See the docs. t1 = datetime.now() self.start() t2=datetime.now() delta = t2 - t1 print delta Eric _______________________________________________ Discuss-gnuradio mailing list Discuss-gnuradio@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnuradio
