Hello everyone,
I have figured out (sort of) how to do profiling of multithreaded
programs with cProfile, it goes something like this:
#!/usr/local/bin/python
import cProfile
import threading
class TestProf(threading.Thread):
def __init__(self, ip):
threading.Thread.__init__(self)
self.ip = ip
def run(self):
prof = cProfile.Profile()
retval = prof.runcall(self.runmethod)
prof.dump_stats('tprof' + self.ip)
def runmethod(self):
pass
tp = TestProf('10.0.10.10')
tp.start()
tp.join()
The problem is, now that I've done profiling in the actual program
(profiled version here: http://python.domeny.com/cssh_profiled.py) with
9 threads and added up stats (using pstats.Stats.add()), the times I get
are trivial:

It's not burning CPU time in the main thread (profiling with cProfile
indicated smth similar to the above), it's not burning it in the
individual worker threads - so where the heck it is burning this CPU
time? bc 'top' shows heavy CPU load during most of the time of the
program run.
help...
