As part of my Google Summer of Code project I have developed a hstats module. It reads a file with profile data saved by hotshot and displays statistics of it after sorting it. The current interface is very basic in the philosophy of You Arent Gonna Need It[1]. So my question here is: please test it and comment on the missing features and other problems you'd like to see.
You can just grab the hprof/hstats.py file from CVS[2] and use it right away. It only depends on the standard library, so just make sure you can import it. It is (hopefully) sufficiently documented in the docstrings. >From my experience with pystones it is 35% faster in loading the hotshot data then the hotshot.stats.load() method. So there is actually some motivation to use this module. I'm eager to hear your comments.
