I am trying to measure the time the processor spends on some operation, and I want this measure to not depend on the current load of the machine. But doing the following prints different values each time a run.
import time c1 = time.clock() for x in xrange(0xFFFFF): pass c2 = time.clock() print "Time spent is %f" % (c2-c1) Is there a way to measure the number of cpu cycles spent on my program alone irrespective of the current load etc of the machine. - Suresh -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
