Profiling results

[Dave]

Hello All,

I'm trying to profile a Python program using gprof,
but I don't understand some of the results, especially
what some of the functions do. For example, _moncount,
mcount, _PyEval_EvalFrame <cycle X> take too much
time. What are they for? Any ideas?

Thank you for your help!

I don't think you will learn anything meaningful about
a Python program from gprof. Use the profiling tools
in Python. http://docs.python.org/lib/profile.html
