Most of what you want to measure is not Python specific but handled by your operating system shell. For instance, to measure #1, #2, #4 and a bunch of other metrics, you can do on Linux: $ /usr/bin/time -v your-program and you will get a whole lot of info about the execution of your-program. If you want to measure Python specific stuff such as the time taken by each function, you can use the Python profiler to do that: https://docs.python.org/3.4/library/profile.html Irmen -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
