You obviously have a nested loop 3 levels deep, which has to be your number 1 suspect. Perhaps it is not required to solve the problem, and a different approach is called for. Describe the problem statement in brief and someone may be able to shed some light. 2. Write a small script to generate very large input test files so you can get more meaningful profile information from cprofile. -Karra _______________________________________________ BangPypers mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/bangpypers
