or like this (untested!) finished = False while not finished: before = time.time() do(x) # sets finished if all was computed after = time.time() delta = after-before time.sleep(delta*10/3.) now the trick: do(x) can be a single piece of code, with strategically placed yield's all over.... -- ----------------------------------------------------------- | Radovan Garabík http://kassiopeia.juls.savba.sk/~garabik/ | | __..--^^^--..__ garabik @ kassiopeia.juls.savba.sk | ----------------------------------------------------------- Antivirus alert: file .signature infected by signature virus.
