value = 0 with open(filename, "w") as f: while f.tell()< size: f.write("{0}\n".format(value)) value += 1 end = time.clock() print "time taken to write a file of size", size, " is ", (end -start), "seconds \n" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ it takes about 20sec i need 5 to 10 times less than that. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
