The biggest bottleneck for me has always been SQL (queries on large tables without adequate indexes, or unnecessary repetition of queries when a single query would suffice, etc).
All of my SQL goes through a few wrapper methods, so in the past I've done some simple profiling by adding timing code to the wrappers so I could find out how long each query took and which queries were being run. I just printed the information to stdout so it would show up in the logfile. At the last Python conference one of the presenters was demonstrating a web application (not a Webware app) where you could turn on a SQL debugging mode and every web page would have the set of SQL queries that were executed and the amount of time each query took embedded in a nicely formatted HTML table at the top of the page. I thought that was a great idea and maybe some day I'll implement something similar for Webware. I've never felt the need to speed up anything besides SQL so I can't really offer any advice there. - Geoff > -----Original Message----- > From: Ian Bicking [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Saturday, June 22, 2002 3:22 AM > To: Edmund Lian > Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [Webware-discuss] Profiling > > > On Fri, 2002-06-21 at 23:45, Edmund Lian wrote: > > I looked at profile, but this seems to require a standalone > Python app, not > > one that is running within Webware.
