Hello all -
I was wondering about the performance implications of explicitly
raising exceptions to get information about the current frame.
Something like what the inspect module does, with:
---
def currentframe():
"""Return the frame object for the caller's stack frame."""
try:
raise 'catch me'
except:
return sys.exc_traceback.tb_frame.f_back
---
I come from a java background, where Exceptions are a big Avoid Me, but
are the performance implications the same in Python? We're expecting a
big load on our app (100,000 users/hour) , so we'd like to be as tuned
as possible.
Thanks,
leo
