"profile" tells me that most of my runtime was spent in just one part (1.28 sec cumulatively out of 1.29 secs. But what is "execfile"? I don't see this as a function call with my python code. Also what's the 0 in the snippet: ":0(execfile)"? Isn't there supposed to be a line-number?
Looking up "execfile" in the python manual leads me to "exec": "This statement supports dynamic execution of Python code." But that seems pretty generic; how can I now try figuring out which part of my python file is the bottleneck? Sorry, I'm a newbiee to profiling. ###################################################################### 51651 function calls (37762 primitive calls) in 1.290 CPU seconds ncalls tottime percall cumtime percall filename:lineno(function) [snip] 1 0.010 0.010 1.280 1.280 :0(execfile) [snip] ########################################################## -- Rahul -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
