Use sys._getframe() instead; it doesn't raise an exception.

You're absolutely right, in fact the code snippet from my OP was taken
directly from inspect.curr

Python uses exceptions intern
As for performance, you'll need to benchmark it.
However, I think the functionality you're asking for is available as
inspect.currentframe(), and if the implementation is in "C" it may have a tiny
performance advantage over the Python version.

Well, you could measure it experimentally pretty easily, but anyway,
Python exceptions are much less expensive than Java exceptions.

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:
r
